The test assumes fs.nr_open is close to the default 1048576, but some
systems set it much higher (e.g. 1073741816). In that case, dup2() to
nr_open + 64 requires the kernel to allocate a file descriptor table
with ~1 billion entries, which fails with ENOMEM.

Fix by setting fs.nr_open to a known reasonable base value (1048576)
for the duration of the test, rather than using whatever the system
happens to have.
