Yes, the scenario described in commit 03f219041fdb is still valid, which
is basically the same but without the extra open(2):

- name_to_handle_at("/cephfs/myfile")
- unlink("/cephfs/myfile")
- open_by_handle_at()

The open_by_handle_at man page isn't really clear about these 2 scenarios,
but generic/426 will fail if -ESTALE isn't returned. Want me to add a
comment to the code, describing these 2 scenarios?

Cheers,
