Subject: [PATCH] iio: sca3000: Fix a resource leak in sca3000_probe()

spi->irq from request_threaded_irq() not released when
iio_device_register() fails. Add an return value check and jump to a
common error handler when iio_device_register() fails.

Fixes: 9a4936dc89a3 ("staging:iio:accel:sca3000 Tidy up probe order to avoid a race.")
