Are you saying that this test should not rely on some function that is
called somewhere down the functions it uses and should instead do as you
do above?
I.e. if that is the case, then this stands out as a separate patch, if
not, if this is indeed really related to this patch (at first sight it
doesn't look like) then this explanation you give should be in the
patch comment log.

Hey, so setting of dso->data.fd is protected in this function and we can
be sure that it will not be closed _again_ just before we do that lseek
and other operations, I guess so, just checking...

Ok then, i.e.:
A) take the lock, close it if over the limit, drop the lock.
B) take the lock, check if it is closed, open if so, use it, drop the
lock.
Is that right?
