Requiring a read-write descriptor conflicts both ways with exec, returning ETXTBSY whenever you try to defrag a program that's currently being run, or causing intermittent exec failures on a live system being defragged. As defrag doesn't change the file's contents in any way, there's no reason to consider it a rw operation. Thus, let's check only whether the file could have been opened rw. Such access control is still needed as currently defrag can use extra disk space, and might trigger bugs. We return EINVAL when the request is invalid; here it's ok but merely the user has insufficient privileges. Thus, the EPERM return value reflects the error better -- as discussed in the identical case for dedupe. According to codesearch.debian.net, no userspace program distinguishes these values beyond strerror().
