[PATCH] net: dsa: dsa_loop: Fix netdev leak in dsa_loop_drv_probe()

[Wentao Liang]

In dsa_loop_drv_probe(), a reference to the configured network device
is taken with dev_get_by_name().  This reference is dropped in
dsa_loop_drv_remove() on success, but if dsa_register_switch() fails,
the probe returns without releasing it, leaking the reference.

Fix this by dropping the reference with dev_put() when
dsa_register_switch() fails.
