[ Upstream commitf47f758cff] __add_memory_block() calls both put_device() and device_unregister() when storing the memory block into the xarray. This is incorrect because xarray doesn't take an additional reference and device_unregister() already calls put_device(). Triggering the issue looks really unlikely and its only effect should be to log a spurious warning about a ref counted issue.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
