Instead of calling put_device(&adev->dev) where adev is a pointer to an ACPI device, use specific call, i.e. acpi_dev_put(). Also move it out of the conditional to make it more visible in case some other code will be added which may use that pointer. We need to keep a reference as long as we use the pointer.
