-Subject: [PATCH] eCryptfs: Fix directory open regression in linux-stable
-Newsgroups: gmane.comp.file-systems.ecryptfs.general, gmane.linux.kernel.stable
-Date: 2016-06-29 03:39:41 GMT (18 hours and 6 minutes ago)

-Cherry-picking mainline commit 2f36db71009304b3f0b95afacd8eba1f9f046b87
-introduces a regression in eCryptfs when mainline commit
-6a480a7842545ec520a91730209ec0bae41694c1 (4.6+) is not present. The
-regression causes all attempts at opening directory files to fail with
-EMEDIUMTYPE when the lower filesystem's file_operations for directory
-files do not implement mmap.
-
-This is a simple fix that allows the check for the lower file's mmap
-implementation to be ignored if the lower file is a directory.
