It willl cause null-ptr-deref in the following case:
uif_init()
ubi_add_volume()
cdev_add() -> if it fails, call kill_volumes()
device_register()
kill_volumes() -> if ubi_add_volume() fails call this function
ubi_free_volume()
cdev_del()
device_unregister() -> trying to delete a not added device,
it causes null-ptr-deref
So in ubi_free_volume(), it delete devices whether they are added
or not, it will causes null-ptr-deref.
Fix this by adding some checks.
