staging: r8188eu: handle rtw_init_netdev_name() failure appropriately

Browse source

rtw_init_netdev_name() calls dev_alloc_name() which allocates the name
for the device as per the given name format.
The name format is specified by the module parameter "ifname".
It returns a negative err code if the format is invalid. Handle this
error appropriately.
Cancel the timers ininitliazed by rtw_init_drv_sw() before calling
rtw_free_drv_sw() and then proceed to free the adapter.

Also, if register_netdev() fails then goto free_drv_sw instead of
goto handle_dualmac.
