kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
According to the doc of kobject_init_and_add()

   If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to
   properly clean up the memory associated with the object.

Fix this by calling kobject_put() when kobject_init_and_add() fails.

$ git grep -w kobject_init_and_add drivers/edac/
drivers/edac/edac_device_sysfs.c:259:   err = kobject_init_and_add(&edac_dev->kobj, &ktype_device_ctrl,
drivers/edac/edac_device_sysfs.c:538:   err = kobject_init_and_add(&block->kobj, &ktype_block_ctrl,
drivers/edac/edac_device_sysfs.c:637:   err = kobject_init_and_add(&instance->kobj, &ktype_instance_ctrl,
drivers/edac/edac_pci_sysfs.c:175:      err = kobject_init_and_add(&pci->kobj, &ktype_pci_instance,
drivers/edac/edac_pci_sysfs.c:372:      err = kobject_init_and_add(edac_pci_top_main_kobj,

Wanna audit them all, make sure they all put the kobject properly and do
a single patch fixing those which need fixing?

Thx.

Actually, on a second look, that's not necessary:

                err = edac_device_create_block(edac_dev, instance,
                                                &instance->blocks[i]);
                if (err) {
                        /* If any fail, remove all previous ones */
                        for (j = 0; j < i; j++)
                                edac_device_delete_block(edac_dev,
                                                        &instance->blocks[j]);
				^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

that cleans up the kobjects.

Ditto.

But keep lookin' :-)
