[PATCH 07/13] nvdimm/blk: add error handling support for add_disk()

We never checked for errors on add_disk() as this function
returned void. Now that this is fixed, use the shiny new
error handling.

Since nvdimm/blk uses devm we just need to move the devm
registration towards the end. And in hindsight, that seems
to also provide a fix given del_gendisk() should not be
called unless the disk was already added via add_disk().
The probably of that issue happening is low though, like
OOM while calling devm_add_action(), so the fix is minor.

We manually unwind in case of add_disk() failure prior
to the devm registration.
