For the t_open_tmpfiles tests, limit ourselves to half of file-max so
that we don't OOM the test machine.

This looks like this would certainly help, but wouldn't we want it to be something more like file-max - file-nr ? Or something similar? I'm just thinking the threshold at which we pop the file limit would probably be more dependent on how many files are already allocated about the system. The 2 probably solves it most of the time, but it's certainly possible that file-max / 2 may still be too much in some cases. Thoughts?
