[1] commit 1680939e9ecf ("rpmsg: virtio: Fix possible double free in
rpmsg_virtio_add_ctrl_dev()")
[2] commit c2eecefec5df ("rpmsg: virtio: Fix possible double free in
rpmsg_probe()")
[3] commit bb17d110cbf2 ("rpmsg: Fix calling device_lock() on
non-initialized device")
The above three patches merged at the same time introduced a new bug.
[1] and [2] make rpmsg_ns_register_device and rpmsg_ctrldev_register_device
need to call the callback function internally to free vch when it fails.
[3] has an error return path not handled vch.
Fix this by adding a put_device() to the error path.

I think only the last [3] introduced it, because it's the commit missing
put_device in first error path.
