PdoInitFreeDeviceCreateType4 rule (kmdf)
The PdoInitFreeDeviceCreateType4 rule specifies that the driver must call WdfDeviceInitFree if an error occurs when the driver calls WdfDeviceCreate.
If your driver encounters an error when it calls WdfDriverCreate, and if the driver received the WDFDEVICE_INIT structure from a call to WdfPdoInitAllocate, the driver must call WdfDeviceInitFree.
