As comment of device_register() says, it should use put_device() to give up the reference in the error path. Moving i2c_dev_set_name() to front of device_register(), so it's managed by device core, then call put_device(), when the refcount is 0, the name will be freed in kobject_cleanup() and the 'client' will be freed in i2c_client_dev_release(). Because the 'client' is freed by calling put_device(), so it don't need goto error label, release other resources before put_device() and return directly.
