media: dvb-core: Fix double free in dvb_register_device()

Browse Source 
commit 6b0d0477fce747d4137aa65856318b55fba72198 upstream.

In function dvb_register_device() -> dvb_register_media_device() ->
dvb_create_media_entity(), dvb->entity is allocated and initialized. If
the initialization fails, it frees the dvb->entity, and return an error
code. The caller takes the error code and handles the error by calling
dvb_media_device_free(), which unregisters the entity and frees the
field again if it is not NULL. As dvb->entity may not NULLed in
dvb_create_media_entity() when the allocation of dvbdev->pad fails, a
double free may occur. This may also cause an Use After free in
media_device_unregister_entity().

Fix this by storing NULL to dvb->entity when it is freed.
