Hillf Danton 0a360e8b65 tty: n_gsm: check error while registering tty devices
Add the error path for registering tty devices and roll back in case of error
in bid to avoid the UAF like the below one reported.

Plus syzbot reported general protection fault in cdev_del() on Sep 24, 2020
and both cases are down to the kobject_put() in tty_cdev_add().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
