[PATCH v3] usb: stkwebcam: Update the reference count of the usb device structure

From: Cai Huoqing
Date: Wed Sep 01 2021 - 08:51:22 EST


Use usb_get_dev() to increment the reference count of the usb device
structure in order to avoid releasing the structure while it is still in
use. And use usb_put_dev() to decrement the reference count and thus,
when it will be equal to 0 the structure will be released.

v2->v3:
*call usb_put_dev() in the error path of stk_camera_probe
*move v4l2_ctrl_handler_free/v4l2_device_unregister/kfree(dev)
from stk_camera_disconnect() to stk_v4l_dev_release()
