[PATCH 1/2] misc: mic: Release reference count and memory for VOP device

[Arvind Yadav]

Never directly free @dev after calling device_register(),
even if it returned an error! Always use put_device() to
give up the reference initialized.
Release allocated memory for vop device in vop_release_dev().
