Seems I was confused with fs/namei.c, where I see similar warnings.
I don't see those warnings in fs/open.c.

I'm using today's linux-next tree, where the latest change to
fs/open.c is:
ommit 750d2f1f7b5c
Author: Al Viro [off-list ref]
Date:   Sun Dec 14 03:13:59 2025 -0500
    chroot(2): switch to CLASS(filename)

Do you have something later (newer) than that?

Also, at fs/open.c lines 1147-1157, I don't see anything that would
cause docs warnings.

No, docs-next is older - based on -rc2.  It seems that linux-next has
significantly thrashed thing there, and the offending function
(dentry_create()) moved to namei.c...

2 patches have been sent for these warnings:
