ata: libata-transport: fix error handling in ata_tdev_add()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ata: libata-transport: fix error handling in ata_tdev_add()

In ata_tdev_add(), the return value of transport_add_device() is
not checked. As a result, it causes null-ptr-deref while removing
the module, because transport_remove_device() is called to remove
the device that was not added.

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000000d0

Fix this by checking and handling return value of transport_add_device()
in ata_tdev_add(). In the error path, device_del() is called to delete
the device which was added earlier in this function, and ata_tdev_free()
is called to free ata_dev.
