[PATCH 3/4] stop re-checking permissions in xfs_swapext

[Christoph Hellwig]

xfs_swapext should simplify check if we have a writeable file descriptor
instead of re-checking the permissions using xfs_iaccess.   Add an
additional check to refuse O_APPEND file descriptors because swapext is
not an append-only write operation.
