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

platform/chrome: cros_usbpd_notify: Fix error handling in cros_usbpd_notify_init()

The following WARNING message was given when rmmod cros_usbpd_notify:

 Unexpected driver unregister!

The reason is that the cros_usbpd_notify_init() does not check the return
value of platform_driver_register(), and the cros_usbpd_notify can
install successfully even if platform_driver_register() failed.

Fix by checking the return value of platform_driver_register() and
unregister cros_usbpd_notify_plat_driver when it failed.
