Al Viro notice one cornercase that the new dup3() code. The dup2()
function, as a special case, handles dup-ing to the same file
descriptor. In this case the current dup3() code does nothing at
all. I.e., it ingnores the flags parameter. This shouldn't happen,
the close-on-exec flag should be set if requested.
In case the O_CLOEXEC bit in the flags parameter is not set the
dup3() function should behave in this respect identical to dup2().
This means dup3(fd, fd, 0) should not actively reset the c-o-e
flag.
The patch below implements this minor change.
[AV: credits to Artur Grabowski for bringing that up as potential subtle point
in dup2() behaviour]
