Subject: drivers/misc/hpilo: Correct panic when an AUX iLO is detected

From: Mark Rusk <Mark.Rusk@xxxxxx>

commit eefbc594abbb1b7e6e7eeadb65ae7c7538474210 upstream.

 Using an uninitialized variable 'devnum' after 'goto out;' was causing
 panic.  Just go ahead and return, we need to ignore AUX iLO devs.

 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP
