Subject: [PATCH v2] ACPI / hotplug / PCI: fix memory leak in enable_slot()

From: Feilong Lin <linfeilong@...wei.com>

In enable_slot() in drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c, if pci_get_slot()
will return NULL, we will do not set SLOT_ENABLED flag of slot. if one
device is found by calling pci_get_slot(), its reference count will be
increased. In this case, we did not call pci_dev_put() to decrement the
its reference count, the memory of the device (struct pci_dev type) will
leak.

Fix it by calling pci_dev_put() to decrement its reference count after that
pci_get_slot() returns a PCI device.
