Subject: IB/hfi1: Fix for potential refcount leak in hfi1_open_file()
Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc1
Git-commit: 2b1e7fe16124e86ee9242aeeee859c79a843e3a2
References: bsc#1060463 FATE#323043

The dd refcount is speculatively incremented prior to allocating
the fd memory with kzalloc(). If that kzalloc() failed the dd
refcount leaks.
Increment refcount on kzalloc success.

Fixes: e11ffbd57520 ("IB/hfi1: Do not free hfi1 cdev parent structure early")
