In __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() the return value of
blk_mq_sysfs_register_hctxs() is not checked. If sysfs creation for hctx
fails, later changing the number of hw_queues or removing disk will
trigger the following warning:
kernfs: can not remove 'nr_tags', no directory
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 637 at fs/kernfs/dir.c:1707 kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x13f/0x160

kobjct_del() was called unconditionally even if sysfs creation failed.
Fix it by checkig the kobject creation statusbefore deleting it.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
