When kobject_init_and_add() returns an error in the function
qib_create_port_files(), the function kobject_put() is not called for the
corresponding kobject, which potentially leads to memory leak.
This patch fixes the issue by calling kobject_put() even if
kobject_init_and_add() fails. In addition, the ppd->diagc_kobj is released
along with other kobjects when the sysfs is unregistered.

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.
