If we submit an unknown opcode and have fd == -1, io_op_needs_file() will return true as we default to needing a file. Then when we go and assign the file, we find the 'fd' invalid and return -EBADF. We really should be returning -EINVAL for that case, as we normally do for unsupported opcodes. Change io_op_needs_file() to have the following return values: 0 - does not need a file 1 - does need a file < 0 - error value and use this to pass back the right value for this invalid case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
