The following memory leak was reported after unbinding /dev/cachefiles:

==================================================================
unreferenced object 0xffff9b674176e3c0 (size 192):
  comm "cachefilesd2", pid 680, jiffies 4294881224

==================================================================

Put the reference count of cache_cred in cachefiles_daemon_unbind() to
fix the problem. And also put cache_cred in cachefiles_add_cache() error
branch to avoid memory leaks.
