New revision: 287599
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/287599

Log:
  For open("name", O_DIRECTORY | O_CREAT), do not try to create the
  named node, open(2) cannot create directories.  But do allow the flag
  combination to succeed if the directory already exists.

  Declare the open("name", O_DIRECTORY | O_CREAT | O_EXCL) always
  invalid for the same reason, since open(2) cannot create directory.

  Note that there is an argument that O_DIRECTORY | O_CREAT should be
  invalid always, regardless of the target directory existence or
  O_EXCL.  The current fix is conservative and allows the call to
  succeed in the situation where it succeeded before the patch.
