While we are at it, 150a0b49 ("aio: add support for async openat()") is also
crap.  fs_struct and files_struct is nowhere near enough.  And yes, I realize
that your application probably doesn't step into it.  Which means that these
patches are just fine for your private kernel.  _Not_ for mainline.
