Subject: [Patch net v2] tipc: fix a null pointer deref on error path

In tipc_topsrv_kern_subscr() when s->tipc_conn_new() fails
we call tipc_close_conn() to clean up, but in this case
calling conn_put() is just enough.

This fixes the folllowing crash:

 kasan: GPF could be caused by NULL-ptr deref or user memory access
 general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN
