ULPI registers its bus at module_init, so if the bus fails to register, the module will fail to load and all will be well in the world. However, if the ULPI code is built-in rather than a module, the bus initialization may fail, but we'd still try to register drivers later onto a non-existent bus, which will panic the kernel. Fix that by checking that the bus was indeed initialized before trying to register drivers on top of it.
