nvmem: core: fix cell removal on error

commit db3546d5 upstream.

nvmem_add_cells() could return an error after some cells are already
added to the provider. In this case, the added cells are not removed.
Remove any registered cells if nvmem_add_cells() fails.

Fixes: fa72d847 ("nvmem: check the return value of nvmem_add_cells()")
