This is because in pidfd_getfd(), the file->f_count is incremented twice
1) __pidfd_fget() gets file ref by incrementing f_count in __fget_files()
2) f_count is incremented While installing fd in __fd_install_received()
   i.e. get_file().

Memory leak occurs because the refs count do not match, the struct file
object is never freed.

Secondly the error validity check (ret < 0) after the call to
fd_install_received() is not needed since this function cannot return
negative number after incrementing f_count. So it is wrong to call fput
on condition (ret < 0).

Change pidfd_getfd() to call fput() on file reference once its installed
as new_fd in target process.
