As stated in the original commit for pidfd_send_signal() we don't allow
to signal processes through O_PATH file descriptors since it is
semantically equivalent to a write on the pidfd.
We already correctly error out right now and return EBADF if an O_PATH
fd is passed. This is because we use file->f_op to detect whether a
pidfd is passed and O_PATH fds have their file->f_op set to empty_fops
in do_dentry_open() and thus fail the test.
Thus, there is no regression. It's just semantically correct to use
fdget() and return an error right from there instead of taking a
reference and returning an error later.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
