When discussing[1] exec and posix file locks it was realized that none of the callers of get_files_struct fundamentally needed to call get_files_struct, and that by switching them to helper functions instead it will both simplify their code and remove unnecessary increments of files_struct.count. Those unnecessary increments can result in exec unnecessarily unsharing files_struct which breaking posix locks, and it can result in fget_light having to fallback to fget reducing system performance. Using task_lookup_next_fd_rcu simplifies proc_readfd_common, by moving the checking for the maximum file descritor into the generic code, and by remvoing the need for capturing and releasing a reference on files_struct. As task_lookup_fd_rcu may update the fd ctx->pos has been changed to be the fd +2 after task_lookup_fd_rcu returns.
