Currently the spi_master is allocated by devm_spi_alloc_master()
and devres core manages the deallocation, but in probe failure
path spi_master_put() is being handled manually which causes
"refcount underflow use-after-free" warning when probe failure happens
after allocating spi_master.
Trimmed backtrace during failure:
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
pc : refcount_warn_saturate+0xf4/0x144
Call trace:
refcount_warn_saturate
kobject_put
put_device
devm_spi_release_controller
devres_release_all
This commit makes relevant changes to remove spi_master_put() from probe
failure path.

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.
