fanotify: groups can specify their f_flags for new fd
Currently fanotify fds opened for thier listeners are done with f_flags equal to O_RDONLY | O_LARGEFILE. This patch instead takes f_flags from the fanotify_init syscall and uses those when opening files in the context of the listener. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
