From b6650dab404c701d7fe08a108b746542a934da84 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2020 15:26:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ovl: do not fail because of O_NOATIME In case the file cannot be opened with O_NOATIME because of lack of capabilities, then clear O_NOATIME instead of failing. Remove WARN_ON(), since it would now trigger if O_NOATIME was cleared. Noticed by Amir Goldstein.
