Original goal of addition of drain_call_rcu to qmp_device_add was to cover
the failure case of qdev_device_add. It seems call of drain_call_rcu was
misplaced in 7bed89958bfbf40df what led to waiting for pending RCU callbacks
under happy path too. What led to overall performance degradation of
qmp_device_add.
In this patch call of drain_call_rcu moved under handling of failure of
qdev_device_add.
