Subject: [PATCH v3] node: put_device after failing to device_register
Date:   Wed, 15 Jun 2022 23:17:38 +0800

device_register() is used to register a device with the system.
We need to call put_device() to give up the reference initialized
in device_register() when it returns an error and this will clean
up correctly.
