Subject: net: x25: fix one potential use-after-free issue
From: linzhang <xiaolou4617@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 64df6d525fcff1630098db9238bfd2b3e092d5c1 ]
The function x25_init is not properly unregister related resources
on error handler.It is will result in kernel oops if x25_init init
failed, so add properly unregister call on error handler.
Also, i adjust the coding style and make x25_register_sysctl properly
return failure.
