V4L/DVB (7035): drivers/media/common: Add missing video_device_release

Video_device_alloc returns the result of a kzalloc.  In this case, the
value is stored in a local variable which is not copied elsewhere before
the point of the error return (video_register_device does not save its
first argument anywhere if it returns a negative value).  Thus, a
video_device_release it needed before the error return.

The problem was found using the following semantic match.
