Bernd Edlinger dcc54a54de exec: Fix error handling in begin_new_exec()
commit 84c39ec57d409e803a9bb6e4e85daf1243e0e80b upstream.

If get_unused_fd_flags() fails, the error handling is incomplete because
bprm->cred is already set to NULL, and therefore free_bprm will not
unlock the cred_guard_mutex. Note there are two error conditions which
end up here, one before and one after bprm->cred is cleared.

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.
