[PATCH 08/13] lightnvm: prematurely activate nvm_dev

From: Matias BjÃrling
Date: Mon Nov 16 2015 - 09:37:51 EST


We register with nvm_devices when there registration can still fail.
Move the final registration at the end of the nvm_register function
to make sure we are fully registered when added to the nvm_devices list.
