Oh, forgot to mention...
Christian - it strikes me that the whole "min(count, max_fds)" in
sane_fdtable_size() is a bit stupid.
A _smarter_ approach might be to pass in 'max_fds' to
count_open_files(), and simply not count past that value.
I didn't do that, because I wanted to keep the patch obvious. And it
probably doesn't matter, but it's kind of silly to possibly count a
lot of open files that we want to close anyway, when we already know
the place we should stop counting.
Whatever. I just wanted to mention it in case you decide you want to
clean that part up. This is mostly your code anyway.
