According to alf_ it can't be mir since those eventfd calls are stored
in a Mir::Fd that takes care of closing them

Title:
unity8 leaks file descriptors
Status in mir package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
unity8 leaks file descriptors in various cases, causing the process to
eventually fail (hang and/or restart). These leaks were first
discovered during investigations of https://bugs.launchpad.net
/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1491566 , but it's not clear yet
if they are indeed responsible for that particular bug. In any case,
this is a critical problem, and should be addressed independently.
The fds are leaked in various scenarios, including:
* opening/closing apps
* switching between apps
* locking the screen
