don't bother with {get,put}_write_access() on non-regular files

commit dd20908a8a06b22c171f6c3fcdbdbd65bed07505 upstream.

it's pointless and actually leads to wrong behaviour in at least one
moderately convoluted case (pipe(), close one end, try to get to
another via /proc/*/fd and run into ETXTBUSY).
