Hi,
The main change is split device_register into 2 sperate calls:
device_initalize() and device_add, and then the caller can use
put_device safety when fail to register_virtio_device.
v4->v5:
* virtio: correct some comments
* virtio_remoteproc: use put_device directly, not use temp reg_dev
v3->v4:
* split device_register into device_initialize and devicea_add that
the caller can always use put_device when fail to register virtio
device.
v2->v3:
* virtio: add new helper do get device's status then determine use
put_device or kfree.
v1->v2:
* virtio_pci: add comments in commit message for why using put_device
* virtio_vop: also use put_device int _vop_remove_device

virtio: split device_register into device_initialize and device_add
virtio_pci: don't kfree device on register failure
virtio_vop: don't kfree device on register failure
virtio_remoteproc: correct put_device virtio_device.dev
