commit 75ea44e356b5de8c817f821c9dd68ae329e82add upstream.

On some hosts, rlim.rlim_max can be returned as RLIM_INFINITY.
By casting it to int, it is interpreted as -1, which will cause get_maxfds
to return 0, causing "Invalid argument" errors in nftw() calls.
Fix this by casting the second argument of min() to rlim_t instead.
