fix cgroup_do_mount() handling of failure exits
commit 399504e2 upstream. same story as with last May fixes in sysfs (7b745a4e "unfuck sysfs_mount()"); new_sb is left uninitialized in case of early errors in kernfs_mount_ns() and papering over it by treating any error from kernfs_mount_ns() as equivalent to !new_ns ends up conflating the cases when objects had never been transferred to a superblock with ones when that has happened and resulting new superblock had been dropped. Easily fixed (same way as in sysfs case). Additionally, there's a superblock leak on kernfs_node_dentry() failure *and* a dentry leak inside kernfs_node_dentry() itself - the latter on probably impossible errors, but the former not impossible to trigger (as the matter of fact, injecting allocation failures at that point *does* trigger it).
