------------------------------------------------------ From: Christian König christian.koenig@amd.com Subject: coda: fix reference counting in coda_file_mmap error path
mmap_region() now calls fput() on the vma->vm_file.
So we need to drop the extra reference on the coda file instead of the host file.
