[edk2-devel] [edk2-libc Patch 1/1] edk2-libc/StdLib: file descriptor leak in rename()

[Jayaprakash, N]

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4529

rename() call leads to a function that makes open() for source file
to be renamed. The resulting file descriptor is never closed.
If you have to rename a couple of files this will quickly exhaust
the descriptor table.
The fix is trivial - just close the fd before returning from the function.
