Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: think-lmi: Fix reference leak

Git-commit: 528ab3e605cabf2f9c9bd5944d3bfe15f6e94f81
Patch-mainline: v6.6-rc5
References: git-fixes CVE-2023-52520 bsc#1220921

If a duplicate attribute is found using kset_find_obj(), a reference
to that attribute is returned which needs to be disposed accordingly
using kobject_put(). Move the setting name validation into a separate
function to allow for this change without having to duplicate the
cleanup code for this setting.
As a side note, a very similar bug was fixed in
commit 7295a996fdab ("platform/x86: dell-sysman: Fix reference leak"),
so it seems that the bug was copied from that driver.

Compile-tested only.
