Lin Ma 9d94c04c0d io_uring/filetable: fix file reference underflow
There is an interesting reference bug when -ENOMEM occurs in calling of
io_install_fixed_file(). KASan report like below:

[   14.083622] ==================================================================

The actual tracing of this bug is shown below:

commit 8c71fe7502 ("io_uring: ensure fput() called correspondingly
when direct install fails") adds an additional fput() in
io_fixed_fd_install() when io_file_bitmap_get() returns error values. In
that case, the routine will never make it to io_install_fixed_file() due
to an early return.

static int io_fixed_fd_install(...)
{
  if (alloc_slot) {
    ...
    ret = io_file_bitmap_get(ctx);
    if (unlikely(ret < 0)) {
      io_ring_submit_unlock(ctx, issue_flags);
      fput(file);
      return ret;
    }
    ...
  }
  ...
  ret = io_install_fixed_file(req, file, issue_flags, file_slot);
  ...
}

In the above scenario, the reference is okay as io_fixed_fd_install()
ensures the fput() is called when something bad happens, either via
bitmap or via inner io_install_fixed_file().

However, the commit 61c1b44a21 ("io_uring: fix deadlock on iowq file
slot alloc") breaks the balance because it places fput() into the common
path for both io_file_bitmap_get() and io_install_fixed_file(). Since
io_install_fixed_file() handles the fput() itself, the reference
underflow come across then.

There are some extra commits make the current code into
io_fixed_fd_install() -> __io_fixed_fd_install() ->
io_install_fixed_file()

However, the fact that there is an extra fput() is called if
io_install_fixed_file() calls fput(). Traversing through the code, I
find that the existing two callers to __io_fixed_fd_install():
io_fixed_fd_install() and io_msg_send_fd() have fput() when handling
error return, this patch simply removes the fput() in
io_install_fixed_file() to fix the bug.

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.
