[patch v2] mtd/docg3: dereferencing an ERR_PTR() in docg3_probe()

If doc_probe_device() returned an ERR_PTR, then we accidentally saved
that to docg3_floors[floor] = mtd; which gets derefenced in the error
handling when we call doc_release_device().
I've reworked the error handling to take care of that and hopefully
make it a little simpler.
