Dan Carpenter e78cedd82d Revert "macsec: missing dev_put() on error in macsec_newlink()" ...

[ Upstream commit bd28899dd3 ]

This patch is just wrong, sorry.  I was trying to fix a static checker
warning and misread the code.  The reference taken in macsec_newlink()
is released in macsec_free_netdev() when the netdevice is destroyed.

This reverts commit 5dcd840088.
