Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds a new pidfd_prepare() helper which allows the caller to
reserve a pidfd number and allocates a new pidfd file that stashes the
provided struct pid.
It should be avoided installing a file descriptor into a task's file
descriptor table just to close it again via close_fd() in case an
error occurs. The fd has been visible to userspace and might already
be in use. Instead, a file descriptor should be reserved but not
installed into the caller's file descriptor table.
If another failure path is hit then the reserved file descriptor and
file can just be put without any userspace visible side-effects. And
if all failure paths are cleared the file descriptor and file can be
installed into the task's file descriptor table.
This helper is now used in all places that open coded this
functionality before. For example, this is currently done during
copy_process() and fanotify used pidfd_create(), which returns a pidfd
that has already been made visibile in the caller's file descriptor
table, but then closed it using close_fd().
In one of the next merge windows there is also new functionality
coming to unix domain sockets that will have to rely on
pidfd_prepare()"
