firewire: sbp2: fix memory leak in sbp2_cancel_orbs or at send error
When an ORB was canceled (Command ORB i.e. SCSI request timed out, or Management ORB timed out), or there was a send error in the initial transaction, we missed to drop one of the ORB's references and thus leaked memory. Background: In total, we hold 3 references to each Operation Request Block: - 1 during sbp2_scsi_queuecommand() or sbp2_send_management_orb() respectively, - 1 for the duration of the write transaction to the ORB_Pointer or Management_Agent register of the target, - 1 for as long as the ORB stays within the lu->orb_list, until the ORB is unlinked from the list and the orb->callback was executed. The latter one of these 3 references is finished - normally by sbp2_status_write() when the target wrote status for a pending ORB, - or by sbp2_cancel_orbs() in case of an ORB time-out, - or by complete_transaction() in case of a send error. Of them, the latter two lacked the kref_put. Add the missing kref_put()s. Add comments to the gets and puts of references for transaction callbacks and ORB callbacks so that it is easier to see what is supposed to happen.
