[PATCH] ACPI: scan: fix bus ID cleanup on device_add() failure

Message-ID <[email protected]>
When device_add() fails after acpi_device_set_name() has allocated an
instance ID and linked a new acpi_device_bus_id into
acpi_bus_id_list, the rollback path only removes wakeup_list and
detaches the ACPI handle data.

That leaves the bus-ID bookkeeping behind and keeps the allocated
instance number consumed.

Factor the bus-ID removal into a helper, use it from both the normal
device teardown path and the device_add() rollback path, and only drop
wakeup_list when it was actually linked.

Found by manual review of reports from the
kernel70rc2-fail11-retry-20260801 run.
