[PATCH for-rc] RDMA/siw: Fix failure handling during device creation

[Bernard Metzler]

A failing call to ib_device_set_netdev() during device creation
caused system crash due to xa_destroy of uninitialized xarray
hit by device deallocation. Fixed by moving xarray initialization
before potential device deallocation.
Fixes also correct propagation of ib_device_set_netdev() failure
to caller.

This is for -rc, so please split into two patches. The error
propagation is probably not -rc worthy
