[ Upstream commit a5fb8e6c02d6a518fb2b1a2b8c2471fa77b69436 ]
Fix a leak on the cell refcount in afs_lookup_cell_rcu() due to
non-clearance of the default error in the case a NULL cell name is passed
and the workstation default cell is used.
Also put a bit at the end to make sure we don't leak a cell ref if we're
going to be returning an error.
This leak results in an assertion like the following when the kafs module is
unloaded:
AFS: Assertion failed
2 == 1 is false
0x2 == 0x1 is false
