[lvc-project] [PATCH net] net: dsa: hellcreek: fix missing error handling in LED registration

The LED setup routine registered both led_sync_good
and led_is_gm devices without checking the return
values of led_classdev_register(). If either registration
failed, the function continued silently, leaving the
driver in a partially-initialized state and leaking
a registered LED classdev.
Add proper error handling
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
