While here take more advantage of the fact nobody should be messing with
the table anymore and don't clear the fd slot.

how about this instead, I think it's a nicer clean up.

It's literally do_close_on_exec except locking and put fd are deleted.

boots & does not blow up, but admittedly I did not bother with ltp or
any serious testing

TBH, I don't see much benefit that way - if anything, you are doing
a bunch of extra READ_ONCE() of the same thing (files->fdt), for no
visible reason...

I claim the stock code avoidably implements traversal differently from
do_close_on_exec.

The fdt reload can be trivially lifted out of the loop, does not
affect what I was going for.

But now that you mention this can also be done in the do_close_on_exec
case -- the thread calling it is supposed to be the only consumer, so
fdt can't change.

that's my $0,03 here, I'm not going to further argue about it
