 * finish_open - finish opening a file

 * This can be used to finish opening a file passed to i_op->atomic_open().
 *
 * If the open callback is set to NULL, then the standard f_op->open()
 * filesystem callback is substituted.
 *
 * NB: the dentry reference is _not_ consumed.  If, for example, the dentry is
 * the return value of d_splice_alias(), then the caller needs to perform dput()
 * on it after finish_open().
 *
 * On successful return @file is a fully instantiated open file.  After this, if
 * an error occurs in ->atomic_open(), it needs to clean up with fput().
