[PATCH] Properly unregister reboot notifier in case of failure in ehci hcd

Hi,

If some problem occurs during ehci startup, for instance, request_irq fails, echi hcd driver
tries it best to cleanup, but fails to unregister reboot notifier, which in turn leads to crash on
reboot/poweroff. Below is the patch against current git to fix this.
I did not check if the same problem existed for uhci/ohci host drivers.
