All threads within the process share files table. So some threads
might exit, but files will stay, which is why task_struct and
files_struct have separate refcounting, and having refcount on files
doesn't guarantee any particular task will stay alive for long enough.
So I think we need to refcount both files and task in this case.
Reading source code of copy_files() in kernel/fork.c (CLONE_FILES
flags just bumps refcnt on old process' files_struct), seems to
confirm this as well.
