driver-core: do not register a driver with bus_type not registered
If the bus_type is not registerd, driver_register to that bus will cause oops. I found this bug when test built-in usb serial drivers (ie. aircable driver) with 'nousb' cmdline params. In this patch: 1. set the bus->p=NULL when bus_register failed and unregisterd. 2. if bus->p is NULL, driver_register BUG_ON will be triggered.
