      net: Fix recursive descent in __scm_destroy(). · f8d570a4
      David Miller authored
      __scm_destroy() walks the list of file descriptors in the scm_fp_list
      pointed to by the scm_cookie argument.
      
      Those, in turn, can close sockets and invoke __scm_destroy() again.
      
      There is nothing which limits how deeply this can occur.
      
      The idea for how to fix this is from Linus.  Basically, we do all of
      the fput()s at the top level by collecting all of the scm_fp_list
      objects hit by an fput().  Inside of the initial __scm_destroy() we
      keep running the list until it is empty.
