driver core: Fix error return code in really_probe()
[ Upstream commit f04948dea236b000da09c466a7ec931ecd8d7867 ]
In the case of error handling, the error code returned by the subfunction
should be propagated instead of 0.
Fixes: 1901fb2604fb ("Driver core: fix "driver" symlink timing")
Fixes: 23b6904442d0 ("driver core: add dev_groups to all drivers")
Fixes: 8fd456ec0cf0 ("driver core: Add state_synced sysfs file for devices that support it")
