Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.15 28/41] virtio-mmio: fix missing put_device() when vm_cmdline_parent registration failed

From: chengkaitao <pilgrimtao@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit a58a7f97ba11391d2d0d408e0b24f38d86ae748e ]

The reference must be released when device_register(&vm_cmdline_parent)
failed. Add the corresponding 'put_device()' in the error handling path.
