When the function graph tracer is enabled, all new tasks must allocate a ret_stack to place the return address of functions. This is because the function graph tracer will replace the real return address with a call to the tracing of the exit function. This initialization happens in fork, but it happens too late. If fork fails, then it will call free_task and that calls the freeing of this ret_stack. But before initialization happens, the new (failed) task points to its parents ret_stack. If a fork failure happens during the function trace, it would be catastrophic for the parent. Also, there's no need to call ftrace_graph_exit_task from fork, since it is called by free_task which fork calls on failure.
