Christoph Hellwig c57094a6e1 md: fix error handling in md_alloc
Error handling in md_alloc is a mess.  Untangle it to just free the mddev
directly before add_disk is called and thus the gendisk is globally
visible.  After that clear the hold flag and let the mddev_put take care
of cleaning up the mddev through the usual mechanisms.

Fixes: 5e55e2f5fc ("[PATCH] md: convert compile time warnings into runtime warnings")
Fixes: 9be68dd7ac ("md: add error handling support for add_disk()")
Fixes: 7ad1069166 ("md: properly unwind when failing to add the kobject in md_alloc")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
