mctp_key_alloc() returns a key already referenced.

The mctp_route_input() path receives a packet for a bind socket and
allocates a key. It passes the key to mctp_key_add() which takes a
refcount and adds the key to lists. mctp_route_input() should then
release its own refcount when setting the key pointer to NULL.

In the mctp_alloc_local_tag() path (for mctp_local_output()) we
similarly need to unref the key before returning (mctp_reserve_tag()
takes a refcount and adds the key to lists).

Fixes: 73c618456dc5 ("mctp: locking, lifetime and validity changes for sk_keys")
