gpib: lpvo_usb: fix memory leak on disconnect
commit 5cefb52c1af6f69ea719e42788f6ec6a087eb74c upstream. The driver iterates over the registered USB interfaces during GPIB attach and takes a reference to their USB devices until a match is found. These references are never released which leads to a memory leak when devices are disconnected. Fix the leak by dropping the unnecessary references.
