A problem about hinic create debugfs failed is triggered with the
following log given:

 [  931.419023] debugfs: Directory 'hinic' with parent '/' already present!

The reason is that hinic_module_init() returns pci_register_driver()
directly without checking its return value, if pci_register_driver()
failed, it returns without destroy the newly created debugfs, resulting
the debugfs of hinic can never be created later.

 hinic_module_init()
   hinic_dbg_register_debugfs() # create debugfs directory
   pci_register_driver()
     driver_register()
       bus_add_driver()
         priv = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened
   # return without destroy debugfs directory

Fix by removing debugfs when pci_register_driver() returns error.

Fixes: 253ac3a97921 ("hinic: add support to query sq info")

Changes in v2:
- Change to simpler error handling style
