net: atm: fix memory leak in atm_register_sysfs when device_register fail

When device_register() return error in atm_register_sysfs(), which can be
triggered by kzalloc fail in device_private_init() or other reasons,
kmemleak reports the following memory leaks:

unreferenced object 0xffff88810182fb80 (size 8):
  comm "insmod", pid 504, jiffies 4294852464
  hex dump (first 8 bytes):

    entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f

When device_create_file() return error in atm_register_sysfs(), the same
issue also can be triggered.

Function put_device() should be called to release kobj->name memory and
other device resource, instead of kfree().
