Subject: bus: arm-ccn: Prevent hotplug callback leak

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

commit 26242b330093fd14c2e94fb6cbdf0f482ab26576 upstream.

In case the driver registration fails, the hotplug callback is leaked.

Not fatal, because it's never invoked as there are no instances registered,
but wrong nevertheless.
