intel_th: Don't leak module refcount on failure to activate
Output 'activation' may fail for the reasons of the output driver, for example, if msc's buffer is not allocated. We forget, however, to drop the module reference in this case. So each attempt at activation in this case leaks a reference, preventing the module from ever unloading. This patch adds the missing module_put() in the activation error path.
