Vincent Minet 2fffdf4dde umh: fix memory leak on execve failure
[ Upstream commit db803036ada7d61d096783726f9771b3fc540370 ]

If a UMH process created by fork_usermode_blob() fails to execute,
a pair of struct file allocated by umh_pipe_setup() will leak.

Under normal conditions, the caller (like bpfilter) needs to manage the
lifetime of the UMH and its two pipes. But when fork_usermode_blob()
fails, the caller doesn't really have a way to know what needs to be
done. It seems better to do the cleanup ourselves in this case.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
