[PATCH 1/2] tty: moxa: unwind tty driver if PCI registration fails

[Myeonghun Pak]

moxa_init() registers the tty driver before registering the PCI driver.
If pci_register_driver() fails, module initialization returns without
unregistering the tty driver or dropping its reference. moxa_exit() is
not called after a failed module initialization.

Unregister the tty driver and drop its reference before returning the
PCI registration error.

This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research while
reviewing kernel code.
