Commit 8c67d06f3fd9 ("usb: Link the ports to the connectors they are
attached to") creates a link to the USB Type-C connector for every new
port that is added when possible. If component_add() fails,
usb_hub_create_port_device() prints a warning but does not unregister
the device and does not return errors to the callers.
Syzbot reported a "WARNING in component_del()".
Fix this issue in usb_hub_create_port_device by calling device_unregister()
and returning the errors from component_add().

v1->v2: Move find_and_link_peer() soon after the 'if' test for "retval",
as suggested by Heikki Krogerus with his review of v1.
