The platform_device_put() function was called in one case by the
add_numbered_child() function during error handling even if the passed
variable "pdev" contained a null pointer.

Implementation details could be improved by the adjustment of jump targets
according to the Linux coding style convention.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
