mmc: wbsd: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
[ Upstream commit dc5b9b50fc9d1334407e316e6e29a5097ef833bd ]
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value,
it will lead two issues:
1. The memory that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() is leaked.
2. In the remove() path, mmc_remove_host() will be called to
delete device, but it's not added yet, it will lead a kernel
crash because of null-ptr-deref in device_del().
So fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which
will call mmc_free_host(), besides, other resources also need be
released.
