futex: fix requeue_pi key imbalance

From: Darren Hart <dvhltc@us.ibm.com>

If futex_wait_requeue_pi() wakes prior to requeue, we drop the reference to the
source futex_key twice, once in handle_early_requeue_pi_wakeup() and once on
our way out. Remove the drop from the handle_early_requeue_pi_wakeup() and keep
the get/drops together in futex_wait_requeue_pi().
