[PATCH 4.2 074/258] leds/led-class: Add missing put_device()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ricardo Ribalda Delgado <ricardo.ribalda@xxxxxxxxx>

commit e5b5a61fcb3743f1dacf9e20d28f48423cecf0c1 upstream.

Devices found by class_find_device must be freed with put_device().
Otherwise the reference count will not work properly.

Fixes: a96aa64cb572 ("leds/led-class: Handle LEDs with the same name")
