firmware_class_init() leaves the firmware PM operations and reboot
notifier registered when register_sysfs_loader() fails. In addition, the
sysfs loader can leave the firmware class registered if its sysctl setup
fails.
Unwind the reboot notifier and firmware PM operations when sysfs loader
registration fails. Make register_sysfs_loader() transactional by
unregistering the firmware class if its sysctl registration fails.
Fixes: 6bb9cf3aa3ed ("firmware: provide helpers for registering the syfs loader")
Fixes: 6aad36d421d8 ("firmware_loader: move firmware sysctl to its own files")
