s390/zcrypt: fix reference counting on zcrypt card objects
[ Upstream commit 50ed48c80fecbe17218afed4f8bed005c802976c ]
Tests with hot-plugging crytpo cards on KVM guests with debug
kernel build revealed an use after free for the load field of
the struct zcrypt_card. The reason was an incorrect reference
handling of the zcrypt card object which could lead to a free
of the zcrypt card object while it was still in use.
This is an example of the slab message:

kernel: FIX kmalloc-96: Marking all objects used
The fix is simple: Before use of the queue not only the queue object
but also the card object needs to increase it's reference count
with a call to zcrypt_card_get(). Similar after use of the queue
not only the queue but also the card object's reference count is
decreased with zcrypt_card_put().
