Really "instead of closing them"? I had supposed that rather that this
should be "before closing them". That's also how the kernel code reads
to me, from a quick glance.

It's also mentioned in the commit message. Basically setting
CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE is equivalent to:

unshare(CLONE_FILES);
close_range(<start>, <end>);

Yes, I got that mixed up, thanks for the clarification! I'll send a v2 addressing the review comments later today.
