The fix is incomplete. It only handles errors in bq25890_fw_probe,
but does not release if bq25890_hw_init() fails. It's a lot simpler
to register a new cleanup function:

static void bq25890_release_secondary_chrg(void *data)
{
	struct bq25890_device *bq = data;

    power_supply_put(bq->secondary_chrg);
	bq->secondary_chrg = NULL;
}

	if (ret == 0) {
		bq->secondary_chrg = power_supply_get_by_name(str);
		if (!bq->secondary_chrg)
			return -EPROBE_DEFER;
        ret = devm_add_action_or_reset(dev, bq25890_release_secondary_chrg, bq);
        if (ret)
            return ret;
	}
