Subject: [PATCH] virtio-mmio: fix missing put_device() when vm_cmdline_parent registration failed
Date:   Thu,  2 Jun 2022 08:55:42 +0800
Message-Id: <20220602005542.16489-1-chengkaitao@didiglobal.com>
Precedence: bulk

From: chengkaitao <pilgrimtao@gmail.com>

The reference must be released when device_register(&vm_cmdline_parent)
failed. Add the corresponding 'put_device()' in the error handling path.
