"prefer pipe2() with O_CLOEXEC to avoid leaking file descriptors to child 
processes"

No need to change in this patch if you're following an existing pattern, but 
please do update the message in all checks in a separate patch to explain 
things better.

+/// pipe() is better to be replaced by pipe2().

----------------
"Suggests to replace calls to pipe() with calls to pipe2()."

better to use ``pipe2()``.

WDYT about this rewrite?

"""
This check detects usage of pipe().  Using pipe() is not recommended, pipe2() 
is the suggested replacement.

The check also adds the O_CLOEXEC flag that marks the file descriptor to be 
closed in child processes.  Without this flag a sensitive file descriptor can 
be leaked to a child process, potentially into a lower-privileged SELinux 
domain.

+  // becomes

----------------
"Suggested replacement"

Also use a separate code block for the replacement.
