[PATCH] Revert "PCI: Fix reference leak in pci_register_host_bridge()"
From: Xiangwei Li
Date: Wed Apr 09 2025 - 23:11:44 EST
This reverts commit 804443c1f27883926de94c849d91f5b7d7d696e9.
The newly added logic incorrectly sets bus_registered to true even when
device_register returns an error, this is incorrect.
When device_register fails, there is no need to release the reference count,
and there are no direct error-handling operations following its execution.
Therefore, this patch is meaningless and should be reverted.
Fixes: 804443c1f278 ("PCI: Fix reference leak in pci_register_host_bridge()")
