That patch is (and has been) in linux-next for a long time,
as commit d2ca1fd2bc70, and with the following tags.

     Fixes: 7719a68b2fa4 ("ARM: 9192/1: amba: fix memory leak in amba_device_try_add()")
     Reported-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net>
     Tested-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net>
     Signed-off-by: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@...wei.com>
     Signed-off-by: Russell King (Oracle) <rmk+kernel@...linux.org.uk>

So, yes, it fixes the problem. I don't know where it is pulled from, though.
I thought that it is from Russell's tree, given his Signed-off-by:,
but I never really checked.
