KVM uses anon_inode_get() to allocate file descriptors as part of some of its ioctls. But those ioctls are lacking a flag argument allowing userspace to choose options for the newly opened file descriptor.
In such case it's advised to use O_CLOEXEC by default so that userspace is allowed to choose, without race, if the file descriptor is going to be inherited across exec(). This patch set O_CLOEXEC flag on all file descriptors created with anon_inode_getfd() to not leak file descriptors across exec().
