When device_add(&udev->dev) failed, calling put_device() to explicitly release udev->dev. And the routine which calls usb_new_device() does not call put_device() when an error occurs. As comment of device_add() says, 'if device_add() succeeds, you should call device_del() when you want to get rid of it. If device_add() has not succeeded, use only put_device() to drop the reference count'. Found by code review.
