[PATCH v2] edac: fix kobject refcount leak in edac_device_create_instance

kobject_get(&edac_dev->kobj) acquires a reference on main_kobj, but it is
only released when kobject_init_and_add fails. The success path and the
block-creation error path both return without calling
kobject_put(main_kobj), leaking the edac_dev kobject reference. The
main_kobj pointer is local and lost after function return.
