During driver load it's considered that the i915_driver_create() function fails only in case of insufficient memory. Indeed, in case of failure of i915_driver_create(), the load function returns indiscriminately -ENOMEM ignoring the real cause of failure. In i915_driver_create() get the consistent error value from drm_dev_init() and embed it in the pointer return value.
