Subject: [PATCH V4 1/3] thermal: core: call put_device() only after device_register() fails

put_device() shouldn't be called before a prior call to
device_register(). __thermal_cooling_device_register() doesn't follow
that properly and needs fixing. Also
thermal_cooling_device_destroy_sysfs() is getting called unnecessarily
on few error paths.

Fix all this by placing the calls at the right place.

Based on initial work done by Caleb Connolly.

Fixes: 4748f9687caa ("thermal: core: fix some possible name leaks in error paths")
Fixes: c408b3d1d9bb ("thermal: Validate new state in cur_state_store()")
Reported-by: Caleb Connolly <caleb.connolly@...aro.org>
Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@...aro.org>
---
For v6.2-rc.

V3->V4:
- The first three versions were sent by Caleb.
- The new version fixes the current bugs, without looking to optimize the
  code any further, which is done separately in the next two patches.
