[RFC][PATCH 11/11] optimize c/r check in dup_fd()

__scan_files_for_cr() should compile down to nothing
if checkpoint/restart is disabled.

But, I think the spinlocks in fcheck_files() keep
the compiler from figuring this out.  So, instead
if putting in some #ifdefs, use our new cr_enabled()
helper.

I've verified that this puts .text size back to
where it was without the __scan_files_for_cr() call.
