[Devel] [PATCH RH7] Fix a leak in socket(2) when we fail to allocate a file descriptor.

From: Al Viro <viro at zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Got broken by "make sock_alloc_file() do sock_release() on failures" -
cleanup after sock_map_fd() failure got pulled all the way into
sock_alloc_file(), but it used to serve the case when sock_map_fd()
failed *before* getting to sock_alloc_file() as well, and that got
lost. Trivial to fix, fortunately.
Fixes: 8e1611e23579 (make sock_alloc_file() do sock_release() on failures)

We see that lldpad eats all kernel memory on the node with those leaked
sockets constantly looping on SyS_socket with EMFILE error.
