put_device calls release function which do kfree() inside.
So following use of sch&cdev would cause use-after-free bugs.

Fix these by simply adjusting the position of put_device.

Modified the commit-message as below. Just for the clarification.

Use of sch->dev reference after the put_device() call could trigger
the use-after-free bugs.

Fix this by simply adjusting the position of put_device.

better.
