spufs: fix a leak on spufs_new_file() failure

Published Apr 16, 2025

Description

It's called from spufs_fill_dir(), and caller of that will do spufs_rmdir() in case of failure. That does remove everything we'd managed to create, but... the problem dentry is still negative. IOW, it needs to be explicitly dropped.
