expose a low-level variant of fd_install() for binder
Similar situation to that of __alloc_fd(); do not use unless you really have to. You should not touch any descriptor table other than your own; it's a sure sign of a really bad API design. As with __alloc_fd(), you *must* use a first-class reference to struct files_struct; something obtained by get_files_struct(some task) (let alone direct task->files) will not do. It must be either current->files, or obtained by get_files_struct(current) by the owner of that sucker and given to you. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
