Subject: [PATCH V2] ppdev: Add an error check in register_device
In register_device, the return value of ida_simple_get is unchecked,
in witch ida_simple_get will use an invalid index value.
To address this issue, index should be checked after ida_simple_get. When
the index value is abnormal, a warning message should be printed, the port
should be dropped, and the value should be recorded, then jump to 'err'.
Fixes: 9a69645dde11 ("ppdev: fix registering same device name")

V2:
* In patch V2, we found that parport_find_number implicitly calls
parport_get_port(). So when dealing with abnormal index values, we should
call parport_put_port() to throw away the reference to the port.
