[ 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):

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().
