commit 891e0eab32a57fca4d36c5162628eb0bcb1f0edf upstream.
If device_register() fails, the refcount of device is not 0, the name
allocated in dev_set_name() is leaked. To fix this by calling put_device(),
so that it will be freed in callback function kobject_cleanup().

fw_unit_release() will be called in the error path, move fw_device_get()
before calling device_register() to keep balanced with fw_device_put() in
fw_unit_release().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
