In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ata: libata-transport: fix double ata_host_put() in ata_tport_add()
In the error path in ata_tport_add(), when calling put_device(),
ata_tport_release() is called, it will put the refcount of 'ap->host'.
And then ata_host_put() is called again, the refcount is decreased
to 0, ata_host_release() is called, all ports are freed and set to
null.
When unbinding the device after failure, ata_host_stop() is called
to release the resources, it leads a null-ptr-deref(), because all
the ports all freed and null.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000008

Fix this by removing redundant ata_host_put() in the error path.
