ACPI: fan: cleanup resources in the error path of .probe()
[ Upstream commit c759bc8e9046f9812238f506d70f07d3ea4206d4 ]
Call thermal_cooling_device_unregister() and sysfs_remove_link() in the
error path of acpi_fan_probe() to fix possible memory leak.
This bug was found by an experimental static analysis tool that I am
developing.
