smb3: fix problem unloading module due to leaked refcount on shutdown

The shutdown ioctl can leak a refcount on the tlink which can
prevent rmmod (unloading the cifs.ko) module from working.

Found while debugging xfstest generic/043

Fixes: 69ca1f57 ("smb3: add dynamic tracepoints for shutdown ioctl")
