Description
It seems that zfs_ioc_recv and zfs_ioc_send and possibly other ioctl handlers do not check the fd opening mode.
For example, if a descriptor opened with O_RDONLY is passed to zfs_ioc_send, then the latter will happily write to it unless the object can not be written for other reason.
It would be nice if the mode was checked.
