[PATCH] cdev: cdev_put oops

While fixing an oops in the st driver in a dirty release path, I
encountered an oops in cdev_put for cdevs allocated using cdev_alloc.  If
cdev_del is called when the cdev kobject still has an open user, when the
last cdev_put is called, the cdev_put will call kobject_put, which will end
up ultimately releasing the cdev in cdev_dynamic_release.  Patch fixes the
oops by preventing cdev_put from accessing freed memory.
