After the failure of open(2) with ETXTBSY, IMA produces wrong messages.
Here is a simple test script.
dir=/tmp
cp /bin/sleep $dir
ls -l $dir/sleep
stat -f $dir
$dir/sleep 3 & sleep 1
echo | /bin/dd of=$dir/sleep conv=notrunc && false
wait
rm $dir/sleep
The result.

The problem is that IMA measures the file and increments the
open/read/write counters before the file is actually opened,
but if the open fails it doesn't decrement the counters. I'll
post a patch. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
