Subject[PATCH V2] nilfs2: Fix reference count leak in nilfs_sysfs_create_device_group
Date
From: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@umn.edu>

kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
In nilfs_sysfs_create_device_group(), the memory allocated by
kobject_init_and_add() is not freed when kobject_init_and_add()
fails. Fix this issue by calling kobject_put() to clean up the
kobject.

Fixes: da7141fb78db ("nilfs2: add /sys/fs/nilfs2/<device> group")
Signed-off-by: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@umn.edu>

V2: using kobject_put() to handle kobject_init_and_add() instead of
kobject_del().
