Ulrich Drepper ed8cae8ba0 flag parameters: pipe
This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value.  This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag.  I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation.  I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.

The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags.  I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code.  To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags.  Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.
