usb: gadget: f_hid: fix error handling in ghid_setup()

There were a two issues here.

1) We returned PTR_ERR(NULL) which means success if class_create()
   failed.
2) If alloc_chrdev_region() failed then we should clean up before
   returning.

Also kernel style is to have "error handling" as opposed to "success
handling".  In the original code checking for "if (!status) " is
confusing and this bad style is what lead to bug #2.
