[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 13/58] gpio: sysfs: fix memory leak in gpiod_sysfs_set_active_low

[Luis Henriques]

3.16.7-ckt7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan at kernel.org>

commit 49d2ca84e433dab854c7a866bc6add09cfab682d upstream.

Fix memory leak in the gpio sysfs interface due to failure to drop
reference to device returned by class_find_device when setting the
gpio-line polarity.

Fixes: 0769746183ca ("gpiolib: add support for changing value polarity
in sysfs")
