Rather than reapplying 32001d6f, this approach is a better way of ensuring that the lower file is still open in order to handle writing out the dirty pages. It is called from ecryptfs_release(), while we have a lock on the lower file pointer, just before the lower file gets the final fput() and we overwrite the pointer.
