Chen Zhongjin 40781bfb83 xfrm: Fix ignored return value in xfrm6_init()
When IPv6 module initializing in xfrm6_init(), register_pernet_subsys()
is possible to fail but its return value is ignored.

If IPv6 initialization fails later and xfrm6_fini() is called,
removing uninitialized list in xfrm6_net_ops will cause null-ptr-deref:

KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f]
CPU: 1 PID: 330 Comm: insmod
RIP: 0010:unregister_pernet_operations+0xc9/0x450
Call Trace:
 <TASK>
 unregister_pernet_subsys+0x31/0x3e
 xfrm6_fini+0x16/0x30 [ipv6]
 ip6_route_init+0xcd/0x128 [ipv6]
 inet6_init+0x29c/0x602 [ipv6]
 ...

Fix it by catching the error return value of register_pernet_subsys().

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 Restructured Text 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.
