Commit 13909a0c8897 ("crypto: atmel-sha204a - provide the otp content")
overwrote the hwrng registration return value when creating the sysfs
group, which allowed atmel_sha204a_probe() to succeed even if
devm_hwrng_register() failed.
Return immediately when devm_hwrng_register() fails, and report both
hwrng and sysfs registration errors with dev_err(). Adjust the sysfs
error log message for consistency.
