Managed device links are deleted by device_del(). However it is possible to
add a device link to a consumer before device_add(), and then discovering
an error prevents the device from being used. In that case normally
references to the device would be dropped and the device would be deleted.
However the device link holds a reference to the device, so the device link
and device remain indefinitely (unless the supplier is deleted).

Applied to 5.15/scsi-queue, thanks!
