[PATCH v3 3/3] powerpc/ps3: use put_device() on device_register() failure in ps3_system_bus_device_register

Message-ID <[email protected]>
As per the kernel documentation of device_register() function, it is
important to call put_device even if device_register returns an error.

To follow this guidelines and properly release the resources after
device_register() failure, call put_device() instead of kfree()

Also there are in-function-defined struct layout which make struct device
(core) to be child of layout-child's member (layout.dev.core). Also
definition of struct layout is not unique across functions in the driver.
To be able to free struct layout's dynamic allocation via put_device we
need to make sure that the core's release function must call the free
on parent of core and the parent must be at the location 0 of the struct
layout which will inherently free struct layout. This is to not
complicate the code and keep it as it currently implemented. To check
the location of parent at 0 of struct layout, I have added BUILD_BUG_ON.
