The released fix for this CVE:

  f6b0de53fb8 ("9pfs: prevent opening special files (CVE-2023-2861)")

caused a regression with security_model=3Dpassthrough. When handling a
'Tmknod' request there was a side effect that 'Tmknod' request could fail
as 9p server was trying to adjust permissions:

  #6  close_if_special_file (fd=3D30) at ../hw/9pfs/9p-util.h:140
  #7  openat_file (mode=3D<optimized out>, flags=3D2228224,
      name=3D<optimized out>, dirfd=3D<optimized out>) at
      ../hw/9pfs/9p-util.h:181
  #8  fchmodat_nofollow (dirfd=3Ddirfd@entry=3D31,
      name=3Dname@entry=3D0x5555577ea6e0 "mysocket", mode=3D493) at
      ../hw/9pfs/9p-local.c:360
  #9  local_set_cred_passthrough (credp=3D0x7ffbbc4ace10, name=3D0x5555577e=
a6e0
      "mysocket", dirfd=3D31, fs_ctx=3D0x55555811f528) at
      ../hw/9pfs/9p-local.c:457
  #10 local_mknod (fs_ctx=3D0x55555811f528, dir_path=3D<optimized out>,
      name=3D0x5555577ea6e0 "mysocket", credp=3D0x7ffbbc4ace10) at
      ../hw/9pfs/9p-local.c:702
  #11 v9fs_co_mknod (pdu=3Dpdu@entry=3D0x555558121140,
      fidp=3Dfidp@entry=3D0x5555574c46c0, name=3Dname@entry=3D0x7ffbbc4aced=
0,
      uid=3D1000, gid=3D1000, dev=3D<optimized out>, mode=3D49645,
      stbuf=3D0x7ffbbc4acef0) at ../hw/9pfs/cofs.c:205
  #12 v9fs_mknod (opaque=3D0x555558121140) at ../hw/9pfs/9p.c:3711

That's because server was opening the special file to adjust permissions,
however it was using O_PATH and it would have not returned the file
descriptor to guest. So the call to close_if_special_file() on that branch
was incorrect.

Let's lift the restriction introduced by f6b0de53fb8 such that it would
allow to open special files on host if O_PATH flag is supplied, not only
for 9p server's own operations as described above, but also for any client
'Topen' request.

It is safe to allow opening special files with O_PATH on host, because
O_PATH only allows path based operations on the resulting file descriptor
and prevents I/O such as read() and write() on that file descriptor.
