Subject: Re: [PATCH 00/16] vfs: atomic open v4 (part 1)

I've been looking at your patches when they're all applied, and I suspect
you're missing some security calls.

For instance, in lookup_open(), you call security_path_mknod() prior to
calling vfs_create(), but you don't call it prior to calling atomic_open() or
in, say, nfs_atomic_open().  You do need to, however, though I can see it's
difficult to work out where.  Is it possible to call it if O_CREAT is
specified and d_inode is NULL right before calling atomic_open()?

I'm also wondering if you're missing an audit_inode() call in the if (created)
path after the retry_lookup label.

David
