fs: Fix close_on_exec pointer in alloc_fdtable



alloc_fdtable allocates space for the open_fds and close_on_exec
bitfields together, as 2 * nr / BITS_PER_BYTE.  close_on_exec needs to
point to open_fds + nr / BITS_PER_BYTE, not open_fds + nr /
BITS_PER_LONG, as introducted in 1fd36adc: Replace the fd_sets in
struct fdtable with an array of unsigned longs.
