Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (ads7871) Fix ads7871_probe error paths
1. remove 'status' variable
2. remove unneeded initialization of 'err' variable
3. return missing error code if sysfs_create_group fail.
4. fix the init sequence as:
- check hardware existence
- kzalloc for ads7871_data
- sysfs_create_group
- hwmon_device_register
