xen/blkback: fix reference counting
commit ea5ec76d76da9279d12027c1828544c5ccbe7932 upstream. If the permission check fails, we drop a reference to the blkif without having taken it in the first place. The bug was introduced in commit 604c499cbbcc3d5fe5fb8d53306aa0fae1990109 (xen/blkback: Check device permissions before allowing OP_DISCARD).
