[PATCH v2] platform/chrome: wilco_ec: Fix device reference leak on open failure

[Yige Jiang <yigejiang86@gmail.com>]

telem_open() takes a reference to dev_data->dev before allocating
the session. If that allocation fails, it returns -ENOMEM without
dropping the reference. Since release is not called after a failed
open, the device data remains pinned after removal.

Take the device reference only after the session allocation succeeds,
so that a failed open does not leave an unbalanced reference. The
successful open path remains balanced by telem_release().

Changes in v2:
- Move get_device() after successful session allocation instead of
  adding put_device() to the allocation failure path, as suggested
  by Tzung-Bi Shih.
- Drop the obsolete Assisted-by trailer and retain the AI disclosure
  below.

v1 Message-ID: <rc-review-20261103-vc-85-d1e3d35e7c31@gmail.com>
Based on linux-next next-20261102 (2637bdec0535).
Compile-tested: baseline and v2 arm64 target objects, GCC 14.2.0, W=1.
CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST=y, CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC=y, CONFIG_WILCO_EC_TELEMETRY=m.
No full kernel/module-link, hardware or runtime test was performed.
AI assistance: Codex (LLM) helped make the patch.
