[PATCH] cpufreq: Fix kobject memleak
From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Tue Apr 30 2019 - 02:06:04 EST
Currently the error return path from kobject_init_and_add() is not
followed by a call to kobject_put() - which means we are leaking the
kobject.
Fix it by adding a call to kobject_put() in the error path of
kobject_init_and_add().
