Fix it by adding a call to kobject_put() in the error path of
kobject_init_and_add().
Thanks for another completion of the exception handling.

Would an other patch subject be a bit nicer?
Thanks for the guidance, I will perfect this description and send a v2

I just used the original author's label, should I replace all his labels 
like'err','err1' with reasonable one.
