I don't think so. qemu_close() is not a fast path and happens almost
never, and the list is short enough that searching it isn't a problem
anyway.

Now that the block layer doesn't use O_SYNC any more, it's more of a
theoretical point. I don't think there's any other place, where we'd
need to switch O_SYNC during runtime.
Taking it into consideration is complicated by the fact that some
kernels allow to fcntl() O_SYNC and others don't, so enforcing a match
here wouldn't feel completely right either.
Maybe just leave it as it is. :-)

Hm, true. So it seems that patch has never made it into the kernel, in
fact...

Yes, probably. And in fact, I think this shouldn't even be conditional
on flags & O_CLOEXEC. The whole reason qemu_open() was introduced
originally was to always set O_CLOEXEC.
