We do not have rcu_read_lock() here.  What would happen if
	* we get fdt
	* another thread does e.g. dup2() with target descriptor greater than
the current size
	* old fdt gets copied and (RCU-delayed) freed
	* nobody is holding rcu_read_lock(), so it gets really freed
	* we read a bitmap from the already freed sucker

It's a narrow window, but on SMP KVM it's not impossible to hit; if you
have preemption enabled, the race window is not so narrow even when
running on bare metal.  In the mainline it is safe, but only because
the damn thing is guaranteed to be _not_ shared with any other thread
(which is what the comment had been about).  Why not simply say
	if (bprm->fdpath && get_close_on_exec(fd))
anyway?
