Linux kernel source tree
8cf01d0c43
The ro variable, being of type bool, caused the -EROFS return value from
mnt_want_write() to be implicitly converted to 1. This prevented the file
from being correctly acquired, thus triggering the issue reported by
syzbot [1].
Changing the type of ro to int allows the system to correctly identify
the reason for the file open failure.

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 reStructuredText 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.
