[PATCH] dma-buf: Fix possible UAF in dma_buf_export

Smatch report warning as follows:

drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf.c:681 dma_buf_export() warn:
  '&dmabuf->list_node' not removed from list

If dma_buf_stats_setup() fails in dma_buf_export(), goto err_sysfs
and dmabuf will be freed, but dmabuf->list_node will not be removed
from db_list.head, then list traversal may cause UAF.

Fix by removeing it from db_list.head before free().

Fixes: ef3a6b70507a ("dma-buf: call dma_buf_stats_setup after dmabuf is in valid list")
