commit 67e40054de86aae520ddc2a072d7f6951812a14f upstream.
A list_add corruption is reported by Hulk Robot like this: ============== list_add corruption. Call Trace: link_obj+0xc0/0x1c0 link_group+0x21/0x140 configfs_register_subsystem+0xdb/0x380 acpi_configfs_init+0x25/0x1000 [acpi_configfs] do_one_initcall+0x149/0x820 do_init_module+0x1ef/0x720 load_module+0x35c8/0x4380 __do_sys_finit_module+0x10d/0x1a0 do_syscall_64+0x34/0x80
It's because of the missing check after configfs_register_default_group, where configfs_unregister_subsystem should be called once failure.
