[PATCH] nvme-hwmon: don't return errors from nvme_hwmon_init

An NVMe controller works perfectly fine even when the hwmon
initialization fails.  Stop returning errors from nvme_hwmon_init to
handle this case consistently.

This should go before the patch from Serge to document and consistently
handle the lack of initialization failure handling for hwmon.
