staging: comedi: fix clean-up of comedi_class in comedi_init()
[ Upstream commit a9332e9ad09c2644c99058fcf6ae2f355e93ce74 ]
There is a clean-up bug in the core comedi module initialization
functions, `comedi_init()`. If the `comedi_num_legacy_minors` module
parameter is non-zero (and valid), it creates that many "legacy" devices
and registers them in SysFS. A failure causes the function to clean up
and return an error. Unfortunately, it fails to destroy the "comedi"
class that was created earlier. Fix it by adding a call to
`class_destroy(comedi_class)` at the appropriate place in the clean-up
sequence.
