[PATCH 6/8] unix_bind_bsd(): move done_path_create() call after dealing with ->bindlock

From: Al Viro
Date: Mon Feb 22 2021 - 14:18:28 EST


Final preparations for doing unlink on failure past the successful
mknod. We can't hold ->bindlock over ->mknod() or ->unlink(), since
either might do sb_start_write() (e.g. on overlayfs). However, we
can do it while holding filesystem and VFS locks - doing
kern_path_create()
vfs_mknod()
grab ->bindlock
if u->addr had been set
drop ->bindlock
done_path_create
return -EINVAL
else
assign the address to socket
drop ->bindlock
done_path_create
return 0
would be deadlock-free. Here we massage unix_bind_bsd() to that
form. We are still doing equivalent transformations.

Next commit will *not* be an equivalent transformation - it will
add a call of vfs_unlink() before done_path_create() in "alread bound"
case.
