Ubuntu: (CVE-2022-49257): linux vulnerability

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

watch_queue: Fix NULL dereference in error cleanup

In watch_queue_set_size(), the error cleanup code doesn't take account of
the fact that __free_page() can't handle a NULL pointer when trying to free
up buffer pages that did get allocated.

Fix this by only calling __free_page() on the pages actually allocated.

Without the fix, this can lead to something like the following:
