securityfs: Drop dentry reference count when mknod fails
lookup_one_len increments dentry reference count which is not decremented when the create operation fails. This can cause a kernel BUG at fs/dcache.c:676 at unmount time. Also error code returned when new_inode() fails was replaced with more appropriate -ENOMEM. Signed-off-by: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@sophos.com> Acked-by: Serge E.
