Subject: [PATCH 4.19 245/267] gnss: sirf: fix error return code in sirf_probe()

From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@...wei.com>

commit 43d7ce70ae43dd8523754b17f567417e0e75dbce upstream.

Fix to return a negative error code from the error handling
case instead of 0, as done elsewhere in this function.

This avoids a use-after-free in case the driver is later unbound.

Fixes: d2efbbd18b1e ("gnss: add driver for sirfstar-based receivers")
