5.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit aa384d10f3d06d4b85597ff5df41551262220e16 ]
The function __alloc_fd was added to support binder[1]. With binder
fixed[2] there are no more users.
As alloc_fd just calls __alloc_fd with "files=current->files",
merge them together by transforming the files parameter into a
local variable initialized to current->files.
[1] dcfadfa4ec5a ("new helper: __alloc_fd()")
[2] 44d8047f1d87 ("binder: use standard functions to allocate fds")
