4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Christoph Hellwig <h...@lst.de>
commit 629e014bb8349fcf7c1e4df19a842652ece1c945 upstream.
Currently we just stash anything we got into file->f_flags, and the
report it in fcntl(F_GETFD). This patch just clears out all unknown
flags so that we don't pass them to the fs or report them.
