Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
platform/chrome: cros_usbpd_notify: Fix error handling in cros_usbpd_notify_init()<br />
<br />
The following WARNING message was given when rmmod cros_usbpd_notify:<br />
<br />
Unexpected driver unregister!<br />
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 253 at drivers/base/driver.c:270 driver_unregister+0x8a/0xb0<br />

RIP: 0033:0x7f333fe9b1b7<br />
<br />
The reason is that the cros_usbpd_notify_init() does not check the return<br />
value of platform_driver_register(), and the cros_usbpd_notify can<br />
install successfully even if platform_driver_register() failed.<br />
<br />
Fix by checking the return value of platform_driver_register() and<br />
unregister cros_usbpd_notify_plat_driver when it failed.
