But who actually needs get_files_struct() ? All users except binder.c need
struct file, not struct files_struct.

See the (completely untested) patch below. It adds the new fget_task() helper
and converts all other users to use it.

As for binder.c, in this case we probably actually want to unshare ->files
on exec so we can ignore it?

Oleg.
