Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mmc: sdio: fix possible resource leaks in some error paths

If sdio_add_func() or sdio_init_func() fails, sdio_remove_func() can
not release the resources, because the sdio function is not presented
in these two cases, it won't call of_node_put() or put_device().

To fix these leaks, make sdio_func_present() only control whether
device_del() needs to be called or not, then always call of_node_put()
and put_device().

In error case in sdio_init_func(), the reference of 'card->dev' is
not get, to avoid redundant put in sdio_free_func_cis(), move the
get_device() to sdio_alloc_func() and put_device() to sdio_release_func(),
it can keep the get/put function be balanced.

Without this patch, while doing fault inject test, it can get the
following leak reports, after this fix, the leak is gone.
