From: Daniel Rosenberg <drosen@xxxxxxxxxx>
__configfs_open_file() used to use configfs_get_config_item, but changed
in commit b0841eefd969 ("configfs: provide exclusion between IO and
removals") to just call to_item. The error path still tries to clean up
the reference, incorrectly decrementing the ref count.
