[PATCH 3/12] iseries_veth: Make init_connection() & destroy_connection() symmetrical

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() in a reverse
loop for the connections we've successfully initialised.
