Noticed this when trying to figure out whether the error handling in
virtio_blk was correct:
Shouldn't you try to cleanup/rewind so that any structures are in a
sane state after failure? The caller doesn't know where device_add_disk
failed, and calling del_gendisk unconditionally like virtio_blk does is
probably not the right thing to do (at the very least, I don't think
unregistering a device that has not been registered is likely to work).
