[S390] dasd: fix refcounting.

The function dasd_device_from_cdev returns a reference to the dasd
device and increases the refcount by one. If an exception occurs,
the refcount was not decreased in all cases
e.g. in dasd_discipline_show.
Prevent the offline processing from hang by correcting two functions
to decrease the refcount even if an error occured.
