In refiltering mode, each sub process inherits bitmap2->fd from parent. Then they lseek()/read() on the same fd, which means that they interference with each other. This breaks the purpose of SPLITTING_FD_BITMAP(i) for each sub process. Fix it by assigning a sub process dedicated fd to bitmap2->fd.
