When spi_alloc_master() returns null pointer, it’s no need to use
spi_master_put() to release the memory, although spi_master_put()
function has null pointer checks.

Please avoid adding useless error strings in the kernel. This will never
fail and if for some reason this fails an error message would already be
printed anyway.
Strings take space on the storage, increase boot time and RAM usage.
