Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] fs: avoid fdput() after failed fdget() in kernel_read_file_from_fd()

Fix kernel_read_file_from_fd() to avoid fdput() after a failed fdget().
fdput() doesn't do fput() on this file since FDPUT_FPUT isn't set
in fd.flags. Fix it anyway since failed fdget() doesn't require
a fdput().

This was introduced in a commit that added kernel_read_file_from_fd() as
a wrapper for the VFS common kernel_read_file().

Fixes: b844f0ecbc56 ("vfs: define kernel_copy_file_from_fd()")
