Subject: [PATCH] fanotify: Fix stale file descriptor in copy_event_to_user()

commit ee12595147ac1fbfb5bcb23837e26dd58d94b15d upstream.

This code calls fd_install() which gives the userspace access to the fd.
Then if copy_info_records_to_user() fails it calls put_unused_fd(fd) but
that will not release it and leads to a stale entry in the file
descriptor table.

Generally you can't trust the fd after a call to fd_install().  The fix
is to delay the fd_install() until everything else has succeeded.

Fortunately it requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN to reach this code so the security
impact is less.
