kfree(dev) is called in put_device(&dev->device) so that following
use would cause use-after-free bug.

There are two inappropriate use of put_device:

1. In create_visor_device, put dev_err before put_device to fix this.

2. In remove_visor_device, the former put_device is redundant because
   device_unregister contains put_device already.
