[ Upstream commit 97d8e8e52cb8ab3d7675880a92626d9a4332f7a6 ]
The write-retry algorithm will insert extra subrequests into the list if it
can't get sufficient capacity to split the range that needs to be retried
into the sequence of subrequests it currently has (for instance, if the
cifs credit pool has fewer credits available than it did when the range was
originally divided).
However, the allocator furnishes each new subreq with 2 refs and then
another is added for resubmission, causing one to be leaked.
Fix this by replacing the ref-getting line with a neutral trace line.
