fuse_file_io_open() clears FOPEN_PARALLEL_DIRECT_WRITES for any open that lacks FOPEN_DIRECT_IO. That rule is too strict for passthrough opens, which already bypass the page cache through the backing file and do not need FOPEN_DIRECT_IO to guarantee direct-I/O semantics. Clearing the flag before the passthrough write path sees it prevents the kernel from ever taking the shared-lock path for passthrough writes. Introduce FOPEN_IOMODE_CACHED() to test for cached (page-cache) iomode -- neither FOPEN_DIRECT_IO nor FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH set -- and use it to guard the FOPEN_PARALLEL_DIRECT_WRITES stripping. Passthrough and direct-IO opens both bypass the page cache, so both are now eligible to enable parallel direct writes. While here, simplify fuse_file_io_open(): drop the early return for the pure direct-IO case and dispatch the caching open through the same FOPEN_IOMODE_CACHED() test, so a pure direct-IO open simply performs no iomode setup instead of returning early. This is a prerequisite for passthrough write parallelism; without it the shared-lock path in the subsequent patch never activates.
