When platform_device_register() fails in do_floppy_init(), the embedded struct device in floppy_device[drive] has already been initialized by device_initialize(), but the failure path jumps to out_remove_drives without dropping the device reference for the current drive. Previously registered floppy devices are cleaned up in out_remove_drives, but the device for the drive that fails registration is not, leading to a reference leak. The issue was identified by a static analysis tool I developed and confirmed by manual review. Fix this by calling put_device() for the current floppy device before jumping to the common cleanup path.
