[PATCH] block: Fix an error handling in add_partition

From: Dinghao Liu <hidden>
Date: 2021-01-16 07:29:41
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: block layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jens Axboe, Linus Torvalds

Once we have called device_initialize(), we should
use put_device() to give up the reference on error,
just like what we have done on failure of device_add().
