Jann Horn f49856f525 udmabuf: fix memory leak on last export_udmabuf() error path
In export_udmabuf(), if dma_buf_fd() fails because the FD table is full, a
dma_buf owning the udmabuf has already been created; but the error handling
in udmabuf_create() will tear down the udmabuf without doing anything about
the containing dma_buf.

This leaves a dma_buf in memory that contains a dangling pointer; though
that doesn't seem to lead to anything bad except a memory leak.

Fix it by moving the dma_buf_fd() call out of export_udmabuf() so that we
can give it different error handling.

Note that the shape of this code changed a lot in commit 5e72b2b41a
("udmabuf: convert udmabuf driver to use folios"); but the memory leak
seems to have existed since the introduction of udmabuf.

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 reStructuredText 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.
