Christian Borntraeger e3a2a0d4e5 anon_inodes: use fops->owner for module refcount
There is an imbalance for anonymous inodes. If the fops->owner field is set,
the module reference count of owner is decreases on release.
("filp_close" --> "__fput" ---> "fops_put")

On the other hand, anon_inode_getfd does not increase the module reference
count of owner. This causes two problems:

- if owner is set, the module refcount goes negative
- if owner is not set, the module can be unloaded while code is running

This patch changes anon_inode_getfd to be symmetric regarding fops->owner
handling.

I have checked all existing users of anon_inode_getfd. Noone sets fops->owner,
thats why nobody has seen the module refcount negative. The refcounting was
tested with a patched and unpatched KVM module.(see patch 2/2) I also did an
epoll_open/close test.
