Revert "ecryptfs: forbid opening files without mmap handler"
commit 78c4e172412de5d0456dc00d2b34050aa0b683b5 upstream. This reverts commit 2f36db71009304b3f0b95afacd8eba1f9f046b87. It fixed a local root exploit but also introduced a dependency on the lower file system implementing an mmap operation just to open a file, which is a bit of a heavy hammer. The right fix is to have mmap depend on the existence of the mmap handler instead. Change-Id: If28c0d48c282c43718ac74adadac9188187d2d42 Signed-off-by:Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by:
