Wang Weiyang 818e5d276d device_cgroup: Roll back to original exceptions after copy failure
commit e68bfbd3b3c3a0ec3cf8c230996ad8cabe90322f upstream.

When add the 'a *:* rwm' entry to devcgroup A's whitelist, at first A's
exceptions will be cleaned and A's behavior is changed to
DEVCG_DEFAULT_ALLOW. Then parent's exceptions will be copyed to A's
whitelist. If copy failure occurs, just return leaving A to grant
permissions to all devices. And A may grant more permissions than
parent.

Backup A's whitelist and recover original exceptions after copy
failure.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or

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
