From: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 0b8e125e213204508e1b3c4bdfe69713280b7abd ] kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails. If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. Previous commit b8eb718348b8 ("net-sysfs: Fix reference count leak in rx|netdev_queue_add_kobject") fixed a similar problem.
