[PATCH] char: scx200_gpio: check cdev_add() return value

[Linkai Gong]

cdev_add() can fail. The driver currently ignores the return value and
reports probe success even when the cdev was not registered, leaving a
chrdev region allocated with no working file operations.

Check the return value, emit an error, and unwind the chrdev region and
platform device on failure.
