net: caif: fix memory leak in ldisc_open
Syzbot reported memory leak in tty_init_dev(). The problem was in unputted tty in ldisc_open() static int ldisc_open(struct tty_struct *tty) { ... ser->tty = tty_kref_get(tty); ... result = register_netdevice(dev); if (result) { rtnl_unlock(); free_netdev(dev); return -ENODEV; } ... } Ser pointer is netdev private_data, so after free_netdev() this pointer goes away with unputted tty reference. So, fix it by adding tty_kref_put() before freeing netdev.
