virtio-mmio: fix memory leak of vm_dev

With the recent removal of vm_dev from devres its memory is only freed
via the callback virtio_mmio_release_dev. However, this only takes
effect after device_add is called by register_virtio_device. Until then
it's an unmanaged resource and must be explicitly freed on error exit.

This bug was discovered and resolved using Coverity Static Analysis
Security Testing (SAST) by Synopsys, Inc.
