r852_register_nand_device() enables the NAND engine before scanning and
registering the card. If sm_register_device() or device_create_file()
fails, the error path leaves the engine enabled while card_registered
remains clear.
A subsequent removal work item sees no registered card and skips
unregistration. The device removal path also returns immediately from
r852_unregister_nand_device() in this state, so neither path disables
the engine.
Disable the engine in the common registration-failure path after any
required NAND cleanup.

mtd: rawnand: r852: disable the engine when card registration fails
This commit calls r852_engine_disable() in the error path of
r852_register_nand_device() when sm_register_device() or
device_create_file() fails.

[Severity: High]
This problem wasn't introduced by this patch, but does sm_register_device()
called earlier in r852_register_nand_device() have its sm_controller_ops
ignored [1]?
r852_probe() initializes chip->controller to &dev->controller (with
r852_ops), while sm_register_device() sets sm_controller_ops on
chip->legacy.dummy_controller:
drivers/mtd/nand/raw/sm_common.c:sm_register_device() {
...
chip->legacy.dummy_controller.ops = &sm_controller_ops;
flash_ids = smartmedia ? nand_smartmedia_flash_ids : nand_xd_flash_ids;
ret = nand_scan_with_ids(chip, 1, flash_ids);
...
}
Because chip->controller is already non-NULL, nand_set_defaults() ignores
dummy_controller, so nand_attach() calls r852_attach_chip() without calling
sm_attach_chip(), leaving the card's OOB layout, bad-block marker
parameters, and page-size validation unconfigured.
