Subject: [PATCH 5.4 017/165] regulator: core: fix regulator_register() error paths to properly release rdev

From: Wen Yang <wenyang@...ux.alibaba.com>

[ Upstream commit a3cde9534ebdafe18a9bbab208df724c57e6c8e8 ]

There are several issues with the error handling code of
the regulator_register() function:
        ret = device_register(&rdev->dev);
        if (ret != 0) {
                put_device(&rdev->dev); --> rdev released
                goto unset_supplies;
        }
...
unset_supplies:
...
        unset_regulator_supplies(rdev); --> use-after-free
...
clean:
        if (dangling_of_gpiod)
                gpiod_put(config->ena_gpiod);
        kfree(rdev);                     --> double free

We add a variable to record the failure of device_register() and
move put_device() down a bit to avoid the above issues.
