The macro "spi_register_driver" invokes the function "__spi_register_driver()" which has a return type of int and can fail, returning a negative value in such a case. This is currently ignored and the init() function yields success even if the spi driver failed to register. Fix this by collecting the return value of "__spi_register_driver()" and also unregister the uart driver in case of failure.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
