Sorry, it actually should be in one separate patch.

Yeah, indeed I know this issue when writing this patch, either normal
fd close or file slot close may fail independently.  I put them together
just for efficiency, one CLOSE op can do two jobs.

Thanks for pointing this issue.

Revert this close change seems reasonable, I thought for a while,
didn't figure out better solutions yet.
Sorry for the trouble again.
