GFS2: fix d_splice_alias() misuses

commit cfb2f9d5c921e38b0f12bb26fed10b877664444d upstream.

Callers of d_splice_alias(dentry, inode) don't need iput(), neither
on success nor on failure.  Either the reference to inode is stored
in a previously negative dentry, or it's dropped.  In either case
inode reference the caller used to hold is consumed.

__gfs2_lookup() does iput() in case when d_splice_alias() has failed.
Double iput() if we ever hit that.  And gfs2_create_inode() ends up
not only with double iput(), but with link count dropped to zero - on
an inode it has just found in directory.
