[PATCH 2/3] ucounts: Proper error handling in set_cred_ucounts

[ebiederm@xmission.com (Eric W. Biederman)]

Instead of leaking the ucounts in new if alloc_ucounts fails, store
the result of alloc_ucounts into a temporary variable, which is later
assigned to new->ucounts.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: 905ae01c4ae2 ("Add a reference to ucounts for each cred")
