mm/slub: fix slab double-free in case of duplicate sysfs filename
sysfs_slab_add() shouldn't call kobject_put at error path: this puts last reference of kmem-cache kobject and frees it. Kmem cache will be freed second time at error path in kmem_cache_create(). For example this happens when slub debug was enabled in runtime and somebody creates new kmem cache: # echo 1 | tee /sys/kernel/slab/*/sanity_checks # modprobe configfs "configfs_dir_cache" cannot be merged because existing slab have debug and cannot create new slab because unique name ":t-0000096" already taken.
