FYI this whole section might be cleaner as


static int may_mknod(mode_t mode)
{
        switch (mode & S_IFMT) {
        case S_IFREG:
        case S_IFCHR:
        case S_IFBLK:
        case S_IFFIFO:
        case S_IFSOCK:
        case 0: /* zero mode translates to S_IFREG *
                return 0;
        case S_IFDIR:
                return -EPERM;
        default:
                return -EINVAL;
        }
}

and then in sys_mknodat just a

        error = may_mknod(mode);
        if (error)
                goto out_dput;
