If you're sure that this code doesn't need the BKL (and it kind of
looked that way to me), the preferred approach seems to be to put in a
comment to that effect so that it's clear that the code has been looked
at. So sending me a patch which does this would be great. Otherwise,
if you're willing to swear on top of a stack of Knuth output that the
BKL is not needed for specific open functions, I can revert my patch
back out and put in the comment - whichever you prefer.
