`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);
