The commit75ae04206a("parisc: Define O_NONBLOCK to become 000200000") changed the O_NONBLOCK constant to have only one bit set (like all other architectures). This change broke some existing userspace code (e.g. udevadm, systemd-udevd, elogind) which called specific syscalls which do strict value checking on their flag parameter. This patch adds wrapper functions for the relevant syscalls. The wrappers masks out any old invalid O_NONBLOCK flags, reports in the syslog if the old O_NONBLOCK value was used and then calls the target syscall with the new O_NONBLOCK value.

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 Restructured Text 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.
