Admin._changeform_view incorrectly initializes ModelForm instance

Description (last modified by Gert Steyn)

In django.contrib.admin.options.ModelAdmin._changeform_view:

form = ModelForm(request.POST, request.FILES, instance=obj)

this line should be:

form = ModelForm(data=request.POST, files=request.FILES, instance=obj)

data and files are not positional arguments, this causes issues if a form with additional kwargs is used.

Hello Gert,

From looking at the forms documentation both data and files seem to be documented as positional so I'm going to close this ticket as invalid.
