Currently we will not generate FS_OPEN events for O_PATH file descriptors but we will generate FS_CLOSE events for them. This is asymmetry is confusing. Arguably no fsnotify events should be generated for O_PATH file descriptors as they cannot be used to access or modify file content, they are just convenient handles to file objects like paths. So fix the asymmetry by stopping to generate FS_CLOSE for O_PATH file descriptors.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
