Subject: [PATCH 42/48] [GFS2] Remove drop of module ref where not needed

From: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@...hat.com>

In an earlier patch "[GFS2] fix file_system_type leak on gfs2meta mount"
we removed the code to grab a ref to the module which was not needed
(since we know that the module cannot be unloaded at that time) so
this patch removes the code to drop that reference.
