From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 11714026c02d613c30a149c3f4c4a15047744529 upstream. scsi_host_dev_release() only frees dev_name when host state is SHOST_CREATED. After host state has changed to SHOST_RUNNING, scsi_host_dev_release() no longer cleans up. Fix this by doing a put_device(&shost->shost_dev) in the failure path when host state is SHOST_RUNNING. Move get_device(&shost->shost_gendev) before device_add(&shost->shost_dev) so that scsi_host_cls_release() can do a put on this reference.
