If the IDA id allocation fails, then the allocated memory for the
idxd_device struct doesn't get freed before returning NULL, which leads to
a memleak.

I think there needs to be a kfree(idxd) where it checks rc < 0 after the call to dev_set_name() as well, yes?
The idxd_conf_device_release() should take care of freeing idxd with the put_device(). So I think we are good here.
