Markus Elfring 9c738dae95 sysctl: Reduce dput(child) calls in proc_sys_fill_cache() ...

Replace two dput(child) calls with one that occurs immediately before
the IS_ERR evaluation. This transformation can be performed because
dput() gets called regardless of the value returned by IS_ERR(res).

This issue was transformed by using a script for the
semantic patch language like the following.
<SmPL>
@extended_adjustment@
expression e, f != { mutex_unlock }, x, y;
@@
+f(e);
 if (...)
 {
 <+... when != \( e = x \| y(..., &e, ...) \)
-   f(e);
 ...+>
 }
-f(e);
</SmPL>
