Subject: [PATCH 0/2] fs: avoid fdput() after failed fdget()

While debugging an unrelated problem that got me down the path of
reviewing at all the fdget() and fdput() paths in the kernel.

While doing the review, I noticed these two places where fdput()
is called after failed fdget(). Fixing them in these two patches.
  
Shuah Khan (2):
  fs: avoid fdput() after failed fdget() in ksys_sync_file_range()
  fs: avoid fdput() after failed fdget() in kernel_read_file_from_fd()
