Subject: [PATCH] tmpfs: ensure O_LARGEFILE with generic_file_open()

From: Thomas Weißschuh <thomas.weissschuh@...deus.com>

Without this check open() will open large files on tmpfs although
O_LARGEFILE was not specified. This is inconsistent with other
filesystems.
Also it will later result in EOVERFLOW on stat() or EFBIG on write().
