[PATCH] sanitize unshare_files/reset_files_struct
* let unshare_files() give caller the displaced files_struct
* don't bother with grabbing reference only to drop it in the
caller if it hadn't been shared in the first place
* in that form unshare_files() is trivially implemented via
unshare_fd(), so we eliminate the duplicate logics in fork.c
* reset_files_struct() is not just only called for current;
it will break the system if somebody ever calls it for anything
else (we can't modify ->files of somebody else). Lose the
task_struct * argument.
