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
9b5b872215fe ("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"
