[PATCH] iseries_veth: Make init_connection() & destroy_connection() symmetrical

Browse source

This patch makes veth_init_connection() and veth_destroy_connection()
symmetrical in that they allocate/deallocate the same data.

Currently if there's an error while initialising connections (ie. ENOMEM)
we call veth_module_cleanup(), however this will oops because we call
driver_unregister() before we've called driver_register(). I've never seen
this actually happen though.

So instead we explicitly call veth_destroy_connection() for each connection,
any that have been set up will be deallocated.

We also fix a potential leak if vio_register_driver() fails.
