Why setting registered to true despite add_disk() failed?
del_gendisk() without successful add_disk() sounds wrong.

Don't we need to undo ataflop_alloc_disk() because it sets
unit[drive].disk[type] to non-NULL ?

will require this part to be updated.

This makes future floppy_probe() no-op once add_disk() failed (or maybe a bad
thing happens somewhere else), for disks[drive][type] was set to non-NULL by
floppy_alloc_disk() but blk_cleanup_disk() does not reset it to NULL.

According to floppy_module_exit() which tries to cleanup it, implementing
undo might be complicated...
