Fixing up users after API changes should be done in the same
patch as the API change itself to avoid breaking compilation
for people doing a bisection.

Why are you removing the printk?

Does not unregister ipip_type on error.

You register xfrm_tunnel_handler twice, which will corrupt the list.

Does not unregister AF_INET tunnel handler on error.

The next patch has similar problems.
