[PATCH 3/3] fuse: Add FOPEN_STREAM and use stream_open() if filesystem returned that from open handler

[Kirill Smelkov <kirr@nexedi.com>]

Starting from 9c225f2655 (vfs: atomic f_pos accesses as per POSIX) files
opened even via nonseekable_open gate read and write via lock and do not
allow them to be run simultaneously. This can create read vs write
deadlock if a filesystem is trying to implement a socket-like file which
is intended to be simultaneously used for both read and write from
filesystem client. See previous patch "fs: stream_open - opener for
stream-like files so that read and write can run simultaneously without
deadlock" for details and e.g. 581d21a2d0 (xenbus: fix deadlock on
writes to /proc/xen/xenbus) for a similar deadlock example on /proc/xen/xenbus.

To avoid such deadlock it was tempting fuse_finish_open to use
stream_open instead of nonseekable_open on just FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flags,
but grepping through Debian codesearch shows users of FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE,
and in particular GVFS which actually uses offset in its read and write
handlers

	https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=-%3Enonseekable+%3D
	https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1080
	https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1247-1346
	https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1399-1481

so if we would do such a change it will break a real user.

-> Add another flag (FOPEN_STREAM) for filesystem servers to indicate
that the opened handler is having stream-like semantics; does not use
file position and thus the kernel is free to issue simultaneous read and
write request on opened file handle.

This patch together with stream_open should be added to stable kernels starting from
v3.14+ (the kernel where 9c225f2655 first appeared). This will allow to patch
OSSPD and other FUSE filesystems that provide stream-like files to return
FOPEN_STREAM | FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE in open handler and this way avoid the deadlock on
all kernel versions. This should work because fuse_finish_open ignores unknown open
flags returned from a filesystem and so passing FOPEN_STREAM to a kernel that
is not aware of this flag cannot hurt. In turn the kernel that is not aware of
FOPEN_STREAM will be < v3.14 where just FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE is sufficient to
implement streams without read vs write deadlock.
