uids: merge multiple error paths in alloc_uid() into one
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
There are already 4 error paths in alloc_uid() that do incremental rollbacks.
I think it's time to merge them.  This costs us 8 lines of code :)

Maybe it would be better to merge this patch with the previous one, but I
remember that some time ago I sent a similar patch (fixing the error path and
cleaning it), but I was told to make two patches in such cases.
