In the error path of fsi_master_register(), we currently use device_unregister(). This will cause the last reference to the structure to be dropped, thus freeing the enclosing structure, which isn't what the callers want. Use device_del() instead so that we return to the caller with a refcount of 1. The caller can then assume that it must use put_device() after a call to fsi_master_register() regardless of whether the latter suceeded or failed.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
