While debugging an unrelated problem, I noticed these two cases fdput() is called after failed fdget() while reviewing at all the fdget() and fdput() paths in the kernel.
Changes since v1: Patch 1: Changed to address review comments to refine the code for improved readability in addition to the change to avoid fdput() on failed fdget() Patch 2: No change to v1. Including it in the series to keep the patches together.
