Before the IMA locking change that were just upstreamed, there were problems with measuring/appraising files that were opened with the O_DIRECT flag. Unless the IMA policy specified permit_directio, the measurement/appraisal failed. With the new locking, opening files with the O_DIRECTIO flag shouldn't be a problem. It just needs to be fully tested before removing this code. On failure, the code below tests the ima_audit_measurement() result and skips the IMA_PERMIT_DIRECTIO test. Unless I'm missing something, I don't see the point.
