Last kernel release we introduce CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED. By default this option is set. When it is set the long-standing behavior of being able to write to mounted block devices is enabled. But in order to guard against unintended corruption by writing to the block device buffer cache CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED can be turned off. In that case it isn't possible to write to mounted block devices anymore. A filesystem may open its block devices with BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES which disallows concurrent BLK_OPEN_WRITE access. When we still had the bdev handle around we could recognize BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES because the mode was passed around. Since we managed to get rid of the bdev handle we changed that logic to recognize BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES based on whether the file was opened writable and writes to that block device are blocked. That logic doesn't work because we do allow BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES to be specified without BLK_OPEN_WRITE. Fix the detection logic and use an FMODE_* bit. We could've also abused O_EXCL as an indicator that BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES has been requested. For userspace open paths O_EXCL will never be retained but for internal opens where we open files that are never installed into a file descriptor table this is fine. But it would be a gamble that this doesn't cause bugs. Note that BLK_OPEN_RESTRICT_WRITES is an internal only flag that cannot directly be raised by userspace. It is implicitly raised during mounting. Passes xftests and blktests with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_WRITE_MOUNTED set and unset.
