commit10eff1f578upstream. This reverts commitab609f25d1. This patch is correct in the sense that we _should_ call device_put() in case of device_register() failure, but the problem in this code is more vast. We need to set bus->state to UNMDIOBUS_REGISTERED before calling device_register() to correctly release the device in mdiobus_free(). This patch prevents us from doing it, since in case of device_register() failure put_device() will be called 2 times and it will cause UAF or something else. Also, Reported-by: tag in revered commit was wrong, since syzbot reported different leak in same function.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
