The function gpib_register_driver() can fail, resulting in a semi-registered module and does not return an error value if it fails. Return the error value if the first gpib_register_driver() fails and if the second gpib_register_driver() fails unregister the first gpib_register_driver() and return the error value. Add pr_err() statements indicating the fail and the error value.
