[ Upstream commit 75d9b8559ac36e059238ee4f8e33cd86086586ba ]
Fault injection test reported memory leak of hci device as follows:

hci_alloc_dev() do not init the device's flag. And hci_free_dev() using put_device() to free the memory allocated for this device, but it calls just put_device(dev) only in case of HCI_UNREGISTER flag is set, So any error handing before hci_register_dev() success will cause memory leak.
To avoid this behaviour we can using kfree() to release dev before hci_register_dev() success.
