The function __fd_install was added to support binder[1]. With binder fixed[2] there are no more users. Further with get_files_struct removed there can be no more users of __fd_install that pass anything except current->files. As fd_install just calls __fd_install with "files=current->files", merge them together by transforming the files parameter into a local variable initialized to current->files.
