Drivers: hv: vmbus: fix possible memory leak in vmbus_device_register()
If device_register() returns error in vmbus_device_register(), the name allocated by dev_set_name() must be freed. As comment of device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path. So fix this by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup().
