Fix CVE-2022-36879.
Upstream commit: f85daf0e725358be78dfd208dea5fd665d8cb901
xfrm_expand_policies() may drop policy references in its error paths without
resetting the policy count, so callers may subsequently call xfrm_pols_put()
again and drop the same reference twice. This can lead to double free / kernel
crash (DoS).
Ensure *num_pols is set to 0 on error paths so callers do not double-release.
