Subject: [PATCH 4.19 063/421] media: em28xx: Fix possible memory leak of em28xx struct

From: Igor Matheus Andrade Torrente <igormtorrente@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit ac5688637144644f06ed1f3c6d4dd8bb7db96020 ]

The em28xx struct kref isn't being decreased after an error in the
em28xx_ir_init, leading to a possible memory leak.

A kref_put and em28xx_shutdown_buttons is added to the error handler code.
