VFS: Allow the filesystem to return a full file pointer on open intent
This is needed by NFSv4 for atomicity reasons: our open command is in fact a lookup+open, so we need to be able to propagate open context information from lookup() into the resulting struct file's private_data field. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
