[PATCH v2 04/12] ubifs: Add missing iput if do_tmpfile() failed in rename whiteout

whiteout inode should be put when do_tmpfile() failed if inode has been
initialized. Otherwise we will get following warning during umount:
  UBIFS error (ubi0:0 pid 1494): ubifs_assert_failed [ubifs]: UBIFS
  assert failed: c->bi.dd_growth == 0, in fs/ubifs/super.c:1930
  VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of ubifs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds.

Fixes: 9e0a1fff8db56ea ("ubifs: Implement RENAME_WHITEOUT")
