From: Wang Hai <wanghai38@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 85c5cbeba8f4fb28e6b9bfb3e467718385f78f76 ] Currently the error return path from kobject_init_and_add() is not followed by a call to kobject_put() - which means we are leaking the kobject. Fix it by adding a call to kobject_put() in the error path of kobject_init_and_add().
