net: socket: don't set sk_uid to garbage value in ->setattr()
->setattr() was recently implemented for socket files to sync the socket
inode's uid to the new 'sk_uid' member of struct sock. It does this by
copying over the ia_uid member of struct iattr. However, ia_uid is
actually only valid when ATTR_UID is set in ia_valid, indicating that
the uid is being changed, e.g. by chown. Other metadata operations such
as chmod or utimes leave ia_uid uninitialized. Therefore, sk_uid could
be set to a "garbage" value from the stack.
Fix this by only copying the uid over when ATTR_UID is set.
