[PATCH linux dev-4.13 09/10] fsi/occ: Don't set driver data late

Until now, the OCC driver was setting the driver data after
registering the character device and the hwmon device.
This might have been intentional, as doing so makes the initial
probe of the OCC by the hwmon device fail while the data is NULL
(provided you are lucky and the hwmon driver doesn't get bound
asynchronously). That failure used to be necessary, otherwise
the driver would try to access the SBE fifo at a time when it's
not ready, causing all sort of problems.
The new SBE fifo driver is much more robust and will return an
appropriate error code, so that (fragile) tweak is no longer
necessary.
