Also, what's the meaning of REQ_OP_READ | REQ_ATOMIC?
REQ_ATOMIC will be ignored for REQ_OP_READ. I'm following the same policy
as something like RWF_SYNC for a read.
We've been rather sloppy with these flags in the past, which isn't
a good thing.  Let's add proper checking for new interfaces.

How about something like this:

----8<----

-static inline int kiocb_set_rw_flags(struct kiocb *ki, rwf_t flags)
+static inline int kiocb_set_rw_flags(struct kiocb *ki, rwf_t flags, int type)
{
int kiocb_flags = 0;

..

+ if (flags & RWF_ATOMIC) {
+ if (type == READ)
+ return -EOPNOTSUPP;
+ if (!(ki->ki_filp->f_mode & FMODE_CAN_ATOMIC_WRITE))
+ return -EOPNOTSUPP;
+ }
kiocb_flags |= (__force int) (flags & RWF_SUPPORTED);
if (flags & RWF_SYNC)
kiocb_flags |= IOCB_DSYNC;

---->8----

I don't see a better place to add this check.
