While reviewing the patch for fixing Coverity scan issue from
gpib: cb7210 [1], Greg pointed out that the gpib_register_driver()
function can fail and must return an error value if it fails.

This patch series fixes the above issue by changing the return type
of gpib_register_driver() function and returning the error value if
it fails.

This fix also makes sure that wherever the gpib_register_driver() is
called and if it fails - the previous driver register functions are
unregistered (if they exist) and the error value is returned. The
pr_err() statements are added indicating the fail and the error value.

Thanks,
Nihar

v5 --> v6 : Removed unnecessary pr_info() statements when the drivers are
            working properly. Added pr_err() in all cases of the driver
            registration fail - indicating the failure and also the
            error value.

v4 --> v5 : Added pr_* statements indicating when the driver register
            functions fail or if the module is initialized without errors.

v3 --> v4 : Made the v3 patch into series and also fixed an error in
            v3 [2]. Each patch in this series is a fix for particular
            driver handling the gpib_register_driver() error.

v2 --> v3 : Modified the gpib_register_driver() to return error code,
            added error handling to all the places that the
            gpib_register_driver() is called.

v1 --> v2 : Replaced the redundant cb_pcmcia_init_module() with
            pcmcia_register_driver().
