drm: Fix authentication kernel crash
commit 598781d71119827b454fd75d46f84755bca6f0c6 upstream. If the master tries to authenticate a client using drm_authmagic and that client has already closed its drm file descriptor, either wilfully or because it was terminated, the call to drm_authmagic will dereference a stale pointer into kmalloc'ed memory and corrupt it. Typically this results in a hard system hang. This patch fixes that problem by removing any authentication tokens (struct drm_magic_entry) open for a file descriptor when that file descriptor is closed.
