[PATCH] Add cloexec information to fdinfo

[drepper]

There is one piece of information about a file descriptor which is
currently not visible from the outside: the close-on-exec flag.  The
/proc/PID/fdinfo/* files have the mode information but this is
missing.  Is the following patch acceptable?

What I don't know is whether the RCU locking is needed given that
real locks are taken.  Someone with more knowledge could just
remove those two lines.
