[PATCH 5.16 224/285] io_uring: dont check req->file in io_fsync_prep()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Apr 12 2022 - 04:25:55 EST


From: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx>

commit ec858afda857e361182ceafc3d2ba2b164b8e889 upstream.

This is a leftover from the really old days where we weren't able to
track and error early if we need a file and it wasn't assigned. Kill
the check.
