securityfs: Drop dentry reference count when mknod fails 

lookup_one_len increments dentry reference count which is not decremented
when the create operation fails. This can cause a kernel BUG at
fs/dcache.c:676 at unmount time. Also error code returned when new_inode()
fails was replaced with more appropriate -ENOMEM.
