Eric W. Biederman 5fc9e37cd5 ucounts: Remove unnecessary test for NULL ucount in get_ucounts
All of the callers of get_ucounts are passeds a non-NULL value so stop
handling a NULL ucounts pointer in get_ucounts.

It is guaranteed that ever valid fully formed cred that is passed to
commit_cred contains a non-NULL ucounts pointer.  This in turn
gurantees that current_ucounts() never returns NULL.

The call of get_ucounts in user_shm_lock is always passed
current_ucounts().

The call of get_ucounts in mqueue_get_inode is always passed
current_ucounts().

The call of get_ucounts in inc_rlmit_get_ucounts is always
passed iter, after iter has been verified to be non-NULL.

The call of get_ucounts in key_change_session_keyring is always passed
current_ucounts().

The call of get_ucounts in prepare_cred is always passed
current_ucounts().

The call of get_ucounts in prepare_kernel_cred is always
passed task->cred->ucounts or init_cred->ucounts which
being on tasks are guaranteed to have a non-NULL ucounts
field.

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.
