Hi, Alessio

This change imply IOCB_* and RWF_* flags are properly aligned, which is 
not true for kernel version 5.4/4.19/4.14. As the patch ("fs: align 
IOCB_* flags with RWF_* flags") is not back-ported to these stable 
kernel branches. The issue was found when applying these patches
to kernel-5.4(files open with passthrough enabled can't do append 
write). I think the issue exists in AOSP common kernel too.
Could you please fix this?
