Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mt76: mt7996: fix PCI device reference leak in
 mt7996_pci_init_hif2()

pci_get_device() increments the reference count on the returned
struct pci_dev. In mt7996_pci_init_hif2(), three pci_get_device()
calls are made but their return values are only checked for NULL
and then discarded. pci_dev_put() is never called, causing a PCI
device reference count leak.

Fix this by storing the return value and calling pci_dev_put()
before returning, following the same pattern already used in the
sibling driver mt7915/pci.c.
