[ Upstream commit f381640e1bd4f2de7ccafbfe8703d33c3718aad9 ]
... except when the table is known to be only used by one thread.
A file pointer can get installed at any moment despite the ->file_lock
being held since the following:
8a81252b77 ("fs/file.c: don't acquire files->file_lock in fd_install()")
Accesses subject to such a race can in principle suffer load tearing.
While here redo the comment in dup_fd -- it only covered a race against
files showing up, still assuming fd_install() takes the lock.

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.
