Alexey Gladkov f3791f4df5 Fix UCOUNT_RLIMIT_SIGPENDING counter leak
We must properly handle an errors when we increase the rlimit counter
and the ucounts reference counter. We have to this with RCU protection
to prevent possible use-after-free that could occur due to concurrent
put_cred_rcu().

The following reproducer triggers the problem:

  $ cat testcase.sh
  case "${STEP:-0}" in
  0)
	ulimit -Si 1
	ulimit -Hi 1
	STEP=1 unshare -rU "$0"
	killall sleep
	;;
  1)
	for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do unshare -rU sleep 5 & done
	;;
  esac

with the KASAN report being along the lines of

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.
