chardev: fix error handling in cdev_device_add()

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit 11fa7fefe3d8fac7da56bc9aa3dd5fb3081ca797 ]

While doing fault injection test, I got the following report:

------------[ cut here ]------------
kobject: '(null)' (0000000039956980): is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being called.

When device_add() is injected fault and returns error, if dev->devt is not set,
cdev_add() is not called, cdev_del() is not needed. Fix this by checking dev->devt
in error path.
