[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 040/130] blkcg: fix gendisk reference leak in blkg_conf_prep()

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.19.8-ckt6 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5f6c2d2b7dbb541c1e922538c49fa04c494ae3d7 upstream.

When a blkcg configuration is targeted to a partition rather than a
whole device, blkg_conf_prep fails with -EINVAL; unfortunately, it
forgets to put the gendisk ref in that case.  Fix it.
