In disable_slot(), if we obtain desired PCI device

Thanks for the patch! This should however be fixed independently by commit 0b13525c20fe ("s390/pci: fix leak of PCI device structure")
which was just added to v5.12-rc4 and will be backported to stable.
There were a few similar cases that also got fixed by that commit.
