[PATCH] apparmor: Fix namespace reference leak in __aa_find_or_create_ns()

When the namespace already exists, the reference taken by aa_get_ns() is
overwritten with ERR_PTR(-EEXIST) without being released. The caller in
apparmorfs.c clears ns on IS_ERR() and so cannot drop it either, leaking
the reference on every mkdir of an existing namespace.

Release the reference before returning -EEXIST.
