info_release() will be called in device_unregister() when info->dev's
reference count is 0. So there is no need to call ocxl_afu_put() and

Fix this by adding free_minor() and return to err_unregister error path.

Thanks for fixing that error path!
I'm now thinking it would be cleaner to have the call to free_minor() in the info_release() callback but that would be another patch.
In any case:
