[PATCH] sanitize locate_fd()
* 'file' argument is unused; lose it. * move setting flags from the caller (dupfd()) to locate_fd(); pass cloexec flag as new argument. Note that files_fdtable() that used to be in dupfd() isn't needed in the place in locate_fd() where the moved code ends up - we know that ->file_lock hadn't been dropped since the last time we calculated fdt because we can get there only if expand_files() returns 0 and it doesn't drop/reacquire in that case. * move getting/dropping ->file_lock into locate_fd(). Now the caller doesn't need to do anything with files_struct *files anymore and we can move that inside locate_fd() as well, killing the struct files_struct * argument. At that point locate_fd() is extremely similar to get_unused_fd_flags() and the next patches will merge those two. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
