From: Armin Wolf <W_Armin@xxxxxx> commit dbd3e6eaf3d813939b28e8a66e29d81cdc836445 upstream. The removal function is called regardless of whether /proc/i8k was created successfully or not, the later causing a WARN() on module removal. Fix that by only registering the removal function if /proc/i8k was created successfully. Tested on a Inspiron 3505.
