Subject: [PATCH] ACPI / container: Fix error code path in container_device_attach()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

To avoid leaking memory on errors from device_register(), do a
put_device() on the device object in question in the error code
path of container_device_attach().

Fixes: caa73ea158de (ACPI / hotplug / driver core: Handle containers in a special way)
Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>
