FS-Cache: Reduce cookie ref count if submit fails.
I've been seeing issues with disposing cookies under vma pressure. The symptom is that the refcount gets out of sync. In this case we fail to decrement the refcount if submit fails. I found this while auditing the error in and around cookie operations. Signed-off-by: Milosz Tanski <milosz@adfin.com> Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
