Subject: [PATCH v5 13/15] staging: gpib: ni_usb: Handle gpib_register_driver() errors

The usb_register() function can fail and returns an error value which
is not returned. The function gpib_register_driver() can also fail
which can result in semi-registered module.

In case gpib_register_driver() fails unregister the previous usb driver
registering function. Return the error value if gpib_register_driver()
or usb_register() functions fail.
