[PATCH v3 0/3] return EINVAL error instead of BUG_ON()

From: Florian Schmaus

This patch series makes driver_register() emit an error message and
return a failure code instead of triggering a BUG_ON()

I tried to make the error message more descriptive compared to v2 by
including the error of the failed bus registration in [3/3]. I'd be
happy to include some more context if you have further suggestions.
