The __scm_destroy function in net/core/scm.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.27.4,
2.6.26, and earlier makes indirect recursive calls to itself through calls
to the fput function, which allows local users to cause a denial of service
(panic) via vectors related to sending an SCM_RIGHTS message through a UNIX
domain socket and closing file descriptors.
