Pull close_range() cleanup from Christian Brauner: "This is a cleanup for close_range() which was sent as part of a bugfix we did some time ago in commit 9b5b8722 ("file: fix close_range() for unshare+cloexec"). We used to share more code between some helpers for close_range() which made retrieving the maximum number of open fds before calling into the helpers sensible. But with the introduction of CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC and the need to retrieve the number of maximum fds once more for CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC that stopped making sense. So the code was in a dumb in-limbo state. Fix this by simplifying the code a bit. The original idea was to only fix the bug itself and make backporting easy. And since the cleanup wasn't very pressing I left it in linux-next for a very long time. I didn't pull the patches from the list again back then which is why they don't have lore-links. So I'm listing them below explicitly" Commit 03ba0fe4 ("file: simplify logic in __close_range()") Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20210402123548.108372-3-brauner@kernel.org Commit f49fd6d3 ("file: let pick_file() tell caller it's done") Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20210402123548.108372-4-brauner@kernel.org * tag 'fs.close_range.v5.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: file: simplify logic in __close_range() file: let pick_file() tell caller it's done
