[PATCH] uio/uio_pci_generic: don't return zero on failure path in probe()

From: Alexey Khoroshilov
Date: Fri Dec 05 2014 - 16:29:15 EST


If uio_register_device() fails in probe(), it breaks off initialization,
deallocates all resources, but returns zero.

The patch adds proper error code propagation.
