[PATCH] drivers/base/node: Handle error properly in register_one_node()

[Donet Tom <donettom@linux.ibm.com>]

If register_node() returns an error, it is not handled correctly.
The function will proceed further and try to register CPUs under the
node, which is not correct.

So, in this patch, if register_node() returns an error, we return
immediately from the function.

This patch is based on the mm-unstable branch.

Fixes: 76b67ed9dce6 ("[PATCH] node hotplug: register cpu: remove node struct")

The issue has been present since the above commit, which is
quite old. Should I add a Fixes: tag and backport it to all
kernels that have this commit?
