Subject: [PATCH] iwlegacy: don't return zero on failure paths in il4965_pci_probe()

If hardware is not ready, il4965_pci_probe() breaks off initialization,
deallocates all resources, but returns zero.
The patch adds -EIO as return value in this case.

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