If em28xx_ir_init fails, it would decrease the refcount of dev. However,
in the em28xx_ir_fini, when ir is NULL, it goes to ref_put and decrease
the refcount of dev. This will lead to a refcount bug.
Fix this bug by removing the kref_put in the error handling code
of em28xx_ir_init.
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
