Some operations, like searching a directory path or connecting a unix domain
socket, make explicit calls into inode_permission.  Our choices are to
either try to come up with a signature for all of the explicit calls to
inode_permission and do not check open on those, or to move the open checks to
dentry_open where we know this is always an open operation.  This patch moves
the checks to dentry_open.
