Thanks for your patch! I totally see your point. However, err_put_ref puts
the "wrong" reference (to &p_dev->function_config->ref), which doesn't help
with the issue you detected, as that requires &p_dev->dev to be dropped.
What about the following instead?

Subject: [PATCH] pcmcia: ds: fix possible name leak in error path in
pcmcia_device_add()

Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's
bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically.
Therefore, it needs to be freed, which is done by the driver core for
us once all references to the device are gone. Therefore, move the
dev_set_name() call immediately before the call device_register(), which
either succeeds (then the freeing will be done upon subsequent remvoal),
or puts the reference in the error call. Also, it is not unusual that the
return value of dev_set_name is not checked.
