[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 56/57] EDAC: Fix memleak in module init error path

[Sasha Levin]

From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4708aa85d50cc6e962dfa8acf5ad4e0d290a21db ]

Make sure to use put_device() to free the initialised struct device so
that resources managed by driver core also gets released in the event of
a registration failure.
