ipmi:msghandler: Fix potential memory corruption in ipmi_create_user()



The "intf" list iterator is an invalid pointer if the correct
"intf->intf_num" is not found.  Calling atomic_dec(&intf->nr_users) on
and invalid pointer will lead to memory corruption.

We don't really need to call atomic_dec() if we haven't called
atomic_add_return() so update the if (intf->in_shutdown) path as well.

Fixes: 8e76741c ("ipmi: Add a limit on the number of users that may use IPMI")
