Closed as program error.
Error description
If applications were already complied with 64bit O_NOFOLLOW flag ■ O_NOFOLLOW was subsequently converted to 32 bit with open64x & open64xat then the changes to convert O_NOFOLLOW have no effect without recompilation of those applications. We can avoid the recompilation of those applications by changing the filesystem code. Note: All applications which uses O_NOFOLLOW with other open subroutines need recompilation of applications.
