Mismatched order with get. Unwinding is always in reversed order. Or
maybe other order is here on purpose? Then it needs to be explained.

There is already an cleanup path/label, so extend it. Existing code
needs some improvements in that matter as well.

That's obvious. Instead write something not obvious - why you call
nfc_get_device() while not incrementing reference to llcp_local.

> +	local->dev = nfc_get_device(ndev->idx);

This looks confusing. If you can access ndev->idx, then ndev reference
was already increased. In such case iterating through all devices to
find it, is unnecessary and confusing.
