[PATCH] file_table: remove the private freelist

- Remove the private freelist.  There's no point in special-casing file
  structure allocations in this way.

- Hence the freeing of files can be moved outside file_list_lock()

- Replace euid test with capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

- Tidy various other things up.
