platform/x86: dell-wmi-sysman: Fix crash caused by calling kset_unregister twice
On some system the WMI GUIDs used by dell-wmi-sysman are present but there are no enum type attributes, this causes init_bios_attributes() to return -ENODEV, after which sysman_init() does a "goto fail_create_group" and then calls release_attributes_data(). release_attributes_data() calls kset_unregister(wmi_priv.main_dir_kset); but before this commit it was missing a "wmi_priv.main_dir_kset = NULL;" statement; and after calling release_attributes_data() the sysman_init() error handling does this: if (wmi_priv.main_dir_kset) { kset_unregister(wmi_priv.main_dir_kset); wmi_priv.main_dir_kset = NULL; } Which causes a second kset_unregister(wmi_priv.main_dir_kset), leading to a double-free, which causes a crash. Add the missing "wmi_priv.main_dir_kset = NULL;" statement to release_attributes_data() to fix this double-free crash.
