[PATCH 5.11 170/254] libbpf: Use SOCK_CLOEXEC when opening the netlink socket

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi <mem...@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 58bfd95b554f1a23d01228672f86bb489bdbf4ba ]

Otherwise, there exists a small window between the opening and closing
of the socket fd where it may leak into processes launched by some other
thread.

Fixes: 949abbe88436 ("libbpf: add function to setup XDP")
