Subject: [PATCH 5.14 152/849] iio: core: fix double free in iio_device_unregister_sysfs()

From: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@...wei.com>

commit 19833c40d0415d6fe4340b5b9c46239abbf718f6 upstream.

I got the double free report:

BUG: KASAN: double-free or invalid-free in kfree+0xce/0x390
 iio_device_unregister_sysfs+0x108/0x13b [industrialio]
 iio_dev_release+0x9e/0x10e [industrialio]
 device_release+0xa5/0x240

If __iio_device_register() fails, iio_dev_opaque->groups will be freed
in error path in iio_device_unregister_sysfs(), then iio_dev_release()
will call iio_device_unregister_sysfs() again, it causes double free.
Set iio_dev_opaque->groups to NULL when it's freed to fix this double free.

Not this is a local work around for a more general mess around life time
management that will get cleaned up and should make this handling
unnecesarry.
