A problem about modprobe amphion-vpu failed is triggered with the
following log given:
[ 2208.634841] Error: Driver 'amphion-vpu' is already registered, aborting...
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'amphion_vpu': Device or resource busy
The reason is that vpu_driver_init() returns vpu_core_driver_init()
directly without checking its return value, if vpu_core_driver_init()
failed, it returns without unregister amphion_vpu_driver, resulting the
amphion-vpu can never be installed later.
A simple call graph is shown as below:
vpu_driver_init()
platform_driver_register() # register amphion_vpu_driver
vpu_core_driver_init()
platform_driver_register()
driver_register()
bus_add_driver()
dev = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened
# return without unregister amphion_vpu_driver
Fix by unregister amphion_vpu_driver when vpu_core_driver_init() returns
error.
