most: usb: hdm_probe: Fix calling put_device() before device initialization
commit a8cc9e5fcb0e2eef21513a4fec888f5712cb8162 upstream.
The early error path in hdm_probe() can jump to err_free_mdev before
&mdev->dev has been initialized with device_initialize(). Calling
put_device(&mdev->dev) there triggers a device core WARN and ends up
invoking kref_put(&kobj->kref, kobject_release) on an uninitialized
kobject.
In this path the private struct was only kmalloc'ed and the intended
release is effectively kfree(mdev) anyway, so free it directly instead
of calling put_device() on an uninitialized device.
This removes the WARNING and fixes the pre-initialization error path.
Fixes: 97a6f772f36b ("drivers: most: add USB adapter driver")
