Wang Liang d0e34c9f79 net: atm: fix memory leak in atm_register_sysfs when device_register fail 
[ Upstream commit 0a228624bc ]

When device_register() return error in atm_register_sysfs(), which can be
triggered by kzalloc fail in device_private_init() or other reasons,
kmemleak reports the following memory leaks:

unreferenced object 0xffff88810182fb80 (size 8):
  comm "insmod", pid 504, jiffies 4294852464
  hex dump (first 8 bytes):
    61 64 75 6d 6d 79 30 00                          adummy0.
  backtrace (crc 14dfadaf):

    kvasprintf+0xb3/0x130
    kobject_set_name_vargs+0x45/0x120

    do_syscall_64+0xa8/0x270
    entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f

When device_create_file() return error in atm_register_sysfs(), the same
issue also can be triggered.

Function put_device() should be called to release kobj->name memory and
other device resource, instead of kfree().

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
