md: Remove extra mddev_get() in md_seq_start()
A regression is seen where mddev devices stay permanently after they are stopped due to an elevated reference count. This was tracked down to an extra mddev_get() in md_seq_start(). It only happened rarely because most of the time the md_seq_start() is called with a zero offset. The path with an extra mddev_get() only happens when it starts with a non-zero offset. The commit noted below changed an mddev_get() to check its success but inadvertently left the original call in. Remove the extra call.
