power: supply: wm97xx: Fix NULL pointer dereference in power_supply_changed()

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

power: supply: wm97xx: Fix NULL pointer dereference in power_supply_changed()

In `probe()`, `request_irq()` is called before allocating/registering a
`power_supply` handle. If an interrupt is fired between the call to
`request_irq()` and `power_supply_register()`, the `power_supply` handle
will be used uninitialized in `power_supply_changed()` in
`wm97xx_bat_update()` (triggered from the interrupt handler). This will
lead to a `NULL` pointer dereference since

Fix this racy `NULL` pointer dereference by making sure the IRQ is
requested _after_ the registration of the `power_supply` handle. Since
the IRQ is the last thing requests in the `probe()` now, remove the
error path for freeing it. Instead add one for unregistering the
`power_supply` handle when IRQ request fails.
