only warn for inherited file descriptors

As discussed in thread: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=4E5618C3.5060507%40free.fr&forum_name=lxc-devel We think it's better for now to only warn the user about a fd leaking into the container. Also remove the call to readlink() as it isn't really useful now: since the container will start anyway, the user can look into /proc/../fd or use lsof or whatever.
