Subject: [PATCH] ipack: add missing put_device() after device_register() failed
put_device() must be called after device_register() fails,
since device_register() always initializes the refcount
on the device structure to one.
dev->id is free'd inside of ipack_device_release function.
So, it's not needed to do it here.
