[PATCH] char: xilinx_hwicap: check device_create() return value

[Linkai Gong]

device_create() can fail, but the driver ignored the return value and
still reported probe success. That leaves a registered char device
without its /dev node.

Check the return value, report the error, and delete the cdev on
failure.
