We generally try to avoid installing a file descriptor into the caller's file descriptor table just to close it again via close_fd() in case an error occurs. Instead we reserve a file descriptor but don't install it into the caller's file descriptor table yet. If we fail for other, unrelated reasons we can just close the reserved file descriptor and if we make it past all meaningful error paths we just install it. Fanotify gets this right already for one fd type but not for pidfds. Use the new pidfd_prepare() helper to reserve a pidfd and a pidfd file and switch to the more common fd allocation and installation pattern.

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.
