From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7ccbdcc4d08a6d7041e4849219bbb12ffa45db4c ] The alloc_tty_driver failure is handled gracefully in hvsi_init. But tty_register_driver is not. panic is called if that one fails. So handle the failure of tty_register_driver gracefully too. This will keep at least the console functional as it was enabled earlier by console_initcall in hvsi_console_init. Instead of shooting down the whole system. This means, we disable interrupts and restore hvsi_wait back to poll_for_state().
