[PATCH 3.8 25/91] atm: idt77252: fix dev refcnt leak

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.8.13.15 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit b5de4a22f157ca345cdb3575207bf46402414bc1 ]

init_card() calls dev_get_by_name() to get a network deceive. But it
doesn't decrease network device reference count after the device is
used.
