3.16.7-ckt25 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet at google.com>

commit fa0dc04df259ba2df3ce1920e9690c7842f8fa4b upstream.

Dmitry reported a struct pid leak detected by a syzkaller program.

Bug happens in unix_stream_recvmsg() when we break the loop when a
signal is pending, without properly releasing scm.

Fixes: b3ca9b02b007 ("net: fix multithreaded signal handling in unix recv routines")
