[PATCH v2] dma-buf: handle testing kthreads creation failure

[Fedor Pchelkin]

kthread creation may possibly fail inside race_signal_callback(). In
such a case stop the already started threads, put the already taken
references to them and return with error code.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org).
