Subject: [PATCH 03/18] flag parameters: anon_inode_getfd extension

This patch just extends the anon_inode_getfd interface to take an additional
parameter with a flag value.  The flag value is passed on to
get_unused_fd_flags in anticipation for a use with the O_CLOEXEC flag.

No actual semantic changes here, the changed callers all pass 0 for now.
