Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 4ec3c15462 futex: Use correct exit on failure from futex_hash_allocate_default()
copy_process() uses the wrong error exit path from futex_hash_allocate_default().
After exiting from futex_hash_allocate_default(), neither tasklist_lock
nor siglock has been acquired. The exit label bad_fork_core_free unlocks
both of these locks which is wrong.

The next exit label, bad_fork_cancel_cgroup, is the correct exit.
sched_cgroup_fork() did not allocate any resources that need to freed.

Use bad_fork_cancel_cgroup on error exit from futex_hash_allocate_default().

Fixes: 7c4f75a21f ("futex: Allow automatic allocation of process wide futex hash")
