Pull pidfd fork() fix from Christian Brauner:
 "A single small fix for copy_process() in kernel/fork.c:

  With Al's removal of ksys_close() from cleanup paths in copy_process()
  a bug was introduced. When anon_inode_getfile() failed the cleanup was
  correctly performed but the error code was not propagated to callers
  of copy_process() causing them to operate on a nonsensical pointer.

  The fix is a simple on-liner which makes sure that a proper negative
  error code is returned from copy_process().

  syzkaller has also verified that the bug is not reproducible with this
  fix"
