On purpose, it's an eye catcher because I didn't have a better idea.

Yes, thanks. That's a better idea.

I think here it might not matter because access to file->private_data is serialized on f_pos_lock and it's not used by anything else.

Warning that use of that library helper means that you can't use your ->d_fsdata for anything else - sure, but that's it.

I freely admit that using file->private_data this way is ugly. I was hoping to find one bit somewhere that I could use to mark the file descriptor, and file->private_data seemed the most handy. We could go back to allocating a phony dentry (d_alloc_cursor) and place the end-of-directory flag in there.

Yes, but it's usually easier to reason about if the pointer just changes during open/close. Nothing I wrote said that it's mandated just so I'm clear.
