inotify_init1()
should include IN_CLOEXEC
in its type argument to avoid the
file descriptor leakage. Without this flag, an opened sensitive file would
remain open across a fork+exec to a lower-privileged SELinux domain.
Examples:
inotify_init1(IN_NONBLOCK);
// becomes
inotify_init1(IN_NONBLOCK | IN_CLOEXEC);
