Subject: [PATCH] cpuidle: Fix three reference count leaks
Git-commit: c343bf1ba5efcbf2266a1fe3baefec9cc82f867f
Patch-mainline: v5.8-rc1
References: git-fixes

kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to
properly clean up the memory associated with the object.

Previous commit "b8eb718348b8" fixed a similar problem.
