Fix ksys_sync_file_range() to avoid fdput() after a failed fdget().
fdput() doesn't do fput() on this file since FDPUT_FPUT isn't set
in fd.flags. Fix it anyway since failed fdget() doesn't require
a fdput().

This was introdcued in a commit to add sync_file_range() helper.

Er...  What's the point microoptimizing the slow path here?

PS: I'm not saying the patch is incorrect, but Fixes: is IMO over the
top.  And looking at that thing,
{
         struct fd f = fdget(fd);
         int ret;

        if (unlikely(!f.file))
                return -EBADF;

        ret = sync_file_range(f.file, offset, nbytes, flags);
         fdput(f);
         return ret;
}

might be cleaner, but that's a matter of taste...

This makes it easier to read.


Yes it does. I will make the changes and send v2.

thanks,
