Subject: [PATCH] selftests/landlock: Fix socket file descriptor leaks in audit
 helpers
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

audit_init() opens a netlink socket and configures it, but leaks the
file descriptor if audit_set_status() or setsockopt() fails.  Fix this
by jumping to an error path that closes the socket before returning.

Apply the same fix to audit_init_with_exe_filter(), which leaks the file
descriptor from audit_init() if audit_init_filter_exe() or
audit_filter_exe() fails, and to audit_cleanup(), which leaks it if
audit_init_filter_exe() fails in FIXTURE_TEARDOWN_PARENT().
