[ Upstream commit0357ef03c9] Commit2a010c4128("fs: don't block i_writecount during exec") removed the legacy behavior of getting ETXTBSY on attempt to open and executable file for write while it is being executed. This commit was reverted because an application that depends on this legacy behavior was broken by the change. We need to allow HSM writing into executable files while executed to fill their content on-the-fly. To that end, disable the ETXTBSY legacy behavior for files that are watched by pre-content events. This change is not expected to cause regressions with existing systems which do not have any pre-content event listeners.

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.
