Taehee Yoo 56dc0a0eac hsr: fix refcnt leak of hsr slave interface
In the commit e0a4b99773 ("hsr: use upper/lower device infrastructure"),
dev_get() was removed but dev_put() in the error path wasn't removed.
So, if creating hsr interface command is failed, the reference counter leak
of lower interface would occur.

Test commands:
    ip link add dummy0 type dummy
    ip link add ipvlan0 link dummy0 type ipvlan mode l2
    ip link add ipvlan1 link dummy0 type ipvlan mode l2
    ip link add hsr0 type hsr slave1 ipvlan0 slave2 ipvlan1
    ip link del ipvlan0

Result:
[  633.271992][ T1280] unregister_netdevice: waiting for ipvlan0 to become free. Usage count = -1

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.
