From: Roberto Sassu <[email protected]>

According to man open.2, files opened with O_PATH are not really opened. The
obtained file descriptor is used to indicate a location in the filesystem
tree and to perform operations that act purely at the file descriptor
level.

Thus, ignore open() syscalls with O_PATH, since IMA cares about file data.
