[PATCH 08/26] sev-dev: avoid pointless cred reference count bump

[Christian Brauner]

and fix a memory leak while at it. The new creds are created via
prepare_creds() and then reverted via put_cred(revert_creds()). The
additional reference count bump from override_creds() wasn't even taken
into account before.
