When the call to usb_new_device() in usb_hub_port_connect_change()
fails and corresponding USB device is freed with usb_free_device(), we
need to make sure that the pointer to it stored in dev->children[port]
is removed as well, lest we risk usage-after-free.

This issue was observed when working with a device for which
usb_set_address() would fail and trying to do "usb" right afterwards.
