[PATCH v3] greybus: es2: drop redundant device reference

[Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>]

Driver core holds a reference to the USB interface and its parent USB
device while the interface is bound to a driver and there is no need to
take additional references unless the structures are needed after
disconnect.

Drop the redundant device reference to reduce cargo culting, make it
easier to spot drivers where an extra reference is needed, and reduce
the risk of memory leaks when drivers fail to release it.

This one needs one more spin... Sorry about the mess up.

Changes in v3:
 - drop the leftover usb_dev_put() in early error paths

Changes in v2:
 - drop temporary udev variable as reported by the kernel test robot
