Fabio M. De Francesco c853685d11 usb: core: Unregister device on component_add() failure
Commit 8c67d06f3f ("usb: Link the ports to the connectors they are
attached to") creates a link to the USB Type-C connector for every new
port that is added when possible. If component_add() fails,
usb_hub_create_port_device() prints a warning but does not unregister
the device and does not return errors to the callers.

Syzbot reported a "WARNING in component_del()".

Fix this issue in usb_hub_create_port_device by calling device_unregister()
and returning the errors from component_add().

Fixes: 8c67d06f3f ("usb: Link the ports to the connectors they are attached to")

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.
