[PATCH] PCI: cpqphp: Fix error handling in cpqhpc_init()

[Yuan Can]

The cpqhpc_init() returns the result of pci_register_driver() without
checking it, if pci_register_driver() failed, the debugfs created in
cpqhp_initialize_debugfs() is not removed, resulting the debugfs of
cpqhp can never be created later.
Fix by calling cpqhp_shutdown_debugfs() when pci_register_driver() failed.

Add a blank line between paragraphs.

Is there some reason cpqhp_initialize_debugfs() needs to be called
before pci_register_driver()?

In other words, could we do this instead?

  result = pci_register_driver(&cpqhpc_driver);
  if (result)
    return result;

  cpqhp_initialize_debugfs();
  return 0;

I assume this was found by code inspection?  I've never heard of
anybody actually using this driver :)

Thanks for the suggestion! I do not see any reason that the order must 
be kept, will change to this style in the next version.

Yes, you are right :)
