[PATCH 2/2] io_uring/sqpoll: don't put task_struct on tctx setup failure

[Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>]

A recent commit moved the error handling of sqpoll thread and tctx
failures into the thread itself, as part of fixing an issue. However, it
missed that tctx allocation may also fail, and that
io_sq_offload_create() does its own error handling for the task_struct
in that case.

Remove the manual task putting in io_sq_offload_create(), as
io_sq_thread() will notice that the tctx did not get setup and hence it
should put itself and exit.
