[PATCH] ucounts: Fix UCOUNT_RLIMIT_SIGPENDING counter leak

[Alexey Gladkov]

If get_ucounts() could not increase the reference counter, then in case
of an error it will be impossible to decrease the counter.

In case of an error, the ucounts variable cannot be set to NULL. Also
dec_rlimit_ucounts() has to be REGARDLESS of whether get_ucounts() was
successful or not.
