driver core: bus: Fix a potential double free
commit 0f9b011d upstream. The .release function of driver_ktype is 'driver_release()'. This function frees the container_of this kobject. So, this memory must not be freed explicitly in the error handling path of 'bus_add_driver()'. Otherwise a double free will occur.
