commit 11714026c02d613c30a149c3f4c4a15047744529 upstream. scsi_host_dev_release() only frees dev_name when host state is SHOST_CREATED. After host state has changed to SHOST_RUNNING, scsi_host_dev_release() no longer cleans up. Fix this by doing a put_device(&shost->shost_dev) in the failure path when host state is SHOST_RUNNING. Move get_device(&shost->shost_gendev) before device_add(&shost->shost_dev) so that scsi_host_cls_release() can do a put on this reference.

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.
