vhost/vsock: Fix error handling in vhost_vsock_init()

[ Upstream commit 7a4efe182ca61fb3e5307e69b261c57cbf434cd4 ]

A problem about modprobe vhost_vsock failed is triggered with the
following log given:

modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'vhost_vsock': Device or resource busy

The reason is that vhost_vsock_init() returns misc_register() directly
without checking its return value, if misc_register() failed, it returns
without calling vsock_core_unregister() on vhost_transport, resulting the
vhost_vsock can never be installed later.
A simple call graph is shown as below:

 vhost_vsock_init()
   vsock_core_register() # register vhost_transport
   misc_register()
     device_create_with_groups()
       device_create_groups_vargs()
         dev = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened
   # return without unregister vhost_transport

Fix by calling vsock_core_unregister() when misc_register() returns error.
