Subject: [106/129] hwmon: (emc1403) Remove unnecessary hwmon_device_unregister

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Yong Wang <yong.y.wang@...ux.intel.com>

commit f17c811d1433aa1966f9c5a744841427e9a97ecf upstream.

It is unnecessary and wrong to call hwmon_device_unregister in error
handling before hwmon_device_register is called.
