Ma Ke 944474274e sunvdc: Balance device refcount in vdc_port_mpgroup_check
commit 63ce53724637e2e7ba51fe3a4f78351715049905 upstream.

Using device_find_child() to locate a probed virtual-device-port node
causes a device refcount imbalance, as device_find_child() internally
calls get_device() to increment the device’s reference count before
returning its pointer. vdc_port_mpgroup_check() directly returns true
upon finding a matching device without releasing the reference via
put_device(). We should call put_device() to decrement refcount.

As comment of device_find_child() says, 'NOTE: you will need to drop
the reference with put_device() after use'.

Found by code review.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
