From: Miklos Szeredi Pass the open file into the filesystem's ->getattr() method for fstat(). This is needed to be able to correctly implement open-unlink-fstat semantics in some filesystem such as sshfs, without having to resort to "silly-renaming". Do this by adding a 'struct file *' parameter to i_op->getattr(). For fstat() pass the open file pointer, in other cases pass NULL. This is safe from a compatibility standpoint, out-of-tree old stuff will continue to work, but will get a warning at compile time.
