NTB: amd: Fix error handling in amd_ntb_pci_driver_init()

A problem about ntb_hw_amd create debugfs failed is triggered with the
following log given:

 [  618.431232] AMD(R) PCI-E Non-Transparent Bridge Driver 1.0
 [  618.433284] debugfs: Directory 'ntb_hw_amd' with parent '/' already present!

The reason is that amd_ntb_pci_driver_init() returns pci_register_driver()
directly without checking its return value, if pci_register_driver()
failed, it returns without destroy the newly created debugfs, resulting
the debugfs of ntb_hw_amd can never be created later.

 amd_ntb_pci_driver_init()
   debugfs_create_dir() # create debugfs directory
   pci_register_driver()
     driver_register()
       bus_add_driver()
         priv = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened
   # return without destroy debugfs directory

Fix by removing debugfs when pci_register_driver() returns error.
