USB: gadget: Fix double-free bug in raw_gadget driver
Re-reading a recently merged fix to the raw_gadget driver showed that
it inadvertently introduced a double-free bug in a failure pathway.
If raw_ioctl_init() encounters an error after the driver ID number has
been allocated, it deallocates the ID number before returning. But
when dev_free() runs later on, it will then try to deallocate the ID
number a second time.
Closely related to this issue is another error in the recent fix: The
ID number is stored in the raw_dev structure before the code checks to
see whether the structure has already been initialized, in which case
the new ID number would overwrite the earlier value.
The solution to both bugs is to keep the new ID number in a local
variable, and store it in the raw_dev structure only after the check
for prior initialization. No errors can occur after that point, so
the double-free will never happen.
