From: Li Nan <linan122 at huawei.com>

Similar to commit adbf4c4954e3 ("ubi: block: fix memleak in
ubiblock_create()"), 'dev->gd' is not assigned but dereferenced if
blk_mq_alloc_tag_set() fails, and leading to a null-pointer-dereference.

Using 'gd' directly here is not a good idea, too. 'gd->part0.bd_device'
is not initialized at this point. The error log will be:
  block (null): block: dynamic minor allocation failed

Fix it by using pr_err() and print ubi id.

Fixes: 77567b25ab9f ("ubi: use blk_mq_alloc_disk and blk_cleanup_disk")
