Subject: af_unix: fix struct pid memory leak
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit fa0dc04df259ba2df3ce1920e9690c7842f8fa4b ]
Dmitry reported a struct pid leak detected by a syzkaller program.
Bug happens in unix_stream_recvmsg() when we break the loop when a
signal is pending, without properly releasing scm.
Fixes: b3ca9b02b007 ("net: fix multithreaded signal handling in unix recv routines")
