namei.c: let follow_link() do put_link() on failure no need for kludgy "set cookie to ERR_PTR(...) because we failed before we did actual ->follow_link() and want to suppress put_link()", no pointless check in put_link() itself. Callers checked if follow_link() has failed anyway; might as well break out of their loops if that happened, without bothering to call put_link() first.
