The reason is that put_device is not be called if cdev_device_add fails
and wdd->id != 0.
watchdog_cdev_register
wd_data = kzalloc [1]
err = dev_set_name [2]
..
err = cdev_device_add
if (err) {
if (wdd->id == 0) { // wdd->id != 0
..
}
return err; // [1],[2] would be leaked
To fix it, call put_device in all wdd->id cases.
