kobject: Improve doc clarity kobject_init_and_add()

Function kobject_init_and_add() is currently misused in a number of
places in the kernel.  On error return kobject_put() must be called but
is at times not.

Make the function documentation more explicit about calling
kobject_put() in the error path.
