Since it is possbile to have same number in tfd field (say file added, closed, then nother file dup'ed to same number and added back) it is imposible to distinguish such target files solely by their numbers. Strictly speaking regular applications don't need to recognize these targets at all but for checkpoint/restore sake we need to collect targets to be able to push them back on restore in proper order. Thus lets add file position, inode and device number where this target lays. This three fields can be used as a primary key for sorting, and together with kcmp help CRIU can find out an exact file target (from the whole set of processes being checkpointed).
