If device_register() returns error, the name allocated by the
dev_set_name() need be freed. As described in the comment of
device_register(), we should use put_device() to give up the reference in
the error path.

Fix this by calling put_device(), the name will be freed in the
kobject_cleanup(), and this patch modified resources will be released by
calling the corresponding callback function in the device_release().
