Subject: [PATCH 4.4 18/40] mac80211_hwsim: fix module init error paths for netlink

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

[ Upstream commit 05cc09de4c017663a217630682041066f2f9a5cd ]

There is no unregister netlink notifier and family on error paths
in init_mac80211_hwsim(). Also there is an error path where
hwsim_class is not destroyed.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
