Chen Zhongjin 60a7a0aa9d perf: Fix possible memleak in pmu_dev_alloc()
[ Upstream commit e8d7a90c08ce963c592fb49845f2ccc606a2ac21 ]

In pmu_dev_alloc(), when dev_set_name() failed, it will goto free_dev
and call put_device(pmu->dev) to release it.
However pmu->dev->release is assigned after this, which makes warning
and memleak.
Call dev_set_name() after pmu->dev->release = pmu_dev_release to fix it.

  Device '(null)' does not have a release() function...

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.
