[PATCH] iio: core: print error message on debugfs register failure

[Alexandru Ardelean]

From: Michael Hennerich <michael.hennerich@xxxxxxxxxx>

If there's a failure when registering a debugfs entry for a device, don't
silently ignore the failure. Instead, print an error message and an error
code signaling the failure.
