[PATCH net] net/smc: remove device from smcd_dev_list after failed device_add()

[Karsten Graul <kgraul@linux.ibm.com>]

From: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com>

If the device_add() for a smcd_dev fails, there's no cleanup step that
rolls back the earlier list_add(). The device subsequently gets freed,
and we end up with a corrupted list.

Add some error handling that removes the device from the list.

Fixes: c6ba7c9ba43d ("net/smc: add base infrastructure for SMC-D and ISM")
