driver core: Release device_hotplug_lock when store_mem_state returns EINVAL
When inserting a wrong value to /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/state file,
following messages are shown. And device_hotplug_lock is never released.
================================================
[ BUG: lock held when returning to user space! ]
3.12.0-rc4-debug+ #3 Tainted: G W
------------------------------------------------
bash/6442 is leaving the kernel with locks still held!
1 lock held by bash/6442:
#0: (device_hotplug_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8146cbb5>] lock_device_hotplug_sysfs+0x15/0x50
This issue was introdued by commit fa2be40 (drivers: base: use standard
device online/offline for state change).
This patch releases device_hotplug_lcok when store_mem_state returns EINVAL.
