Each vhost device gets a thread that is used to perform IO and management operations. Instead of a thread that is accessing a device, the thread is part of the device, so when it creates a thread using a helper based on copy_process we can't dup or clone the parent's files/FDS because it would do an extra increment on ourself. Later, when we do: Qemu process exits: do_exit -> exit_files -> put_files_struct -> close_files we would leak the device's resources because of that extra refcount on the fd or file_struct. This patch adds a no_files option so these worker threads can prevent taking an extra refcount on themselves.
