When associating a "physical" device with an ACPI device object
acpi_bind_one() only uses get_device() to increment the reference
counter of the former, but there is no reason not to do that with
the latter too.  Among other things, that may help to avoid
use-after-free when an ACPI device object is freed without calling
acpi_unbind_one() for all "physical" devices associated with it
(that only can happen in buggy code, but then it's better if the
kernel doesn't crash as a result of a bug).

For this reason, modify acpi_bind_one() to apply get_device() to
the ACPI device object too and update acpi_unbind_one() to drop
that reference using put_device() as appropriate.
