audit: incorrect ref counting in audit tree tag_chunk

Browse source 
tag_chunk has bad exit paths in which the inotify ref counting is wrong.
At the top of the function we found &old_watch using  inotify_find_watch().
inotify_find_watch takes a reference to the watch.  This is never dropped
on an error path.
