Florian Schmaus 0dda2bb624 driver-core: return EINVAL error instead of BUG_ON()
I triggerd the BUG_ON() in driver_register() when booting a domU Xen
domain. Since there was no contextual information logged, I needed to
attach kgdb to determine the culprit (the wmi-bmof driver in my
case). The BUG_ON() was added in commit f48f3febb2 ("driver-core: do
not register a driver with bus_type not registered").

Instead of running into a BUG_ON() we print an error message
identifying the, likely faulty, driver but continue booting.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
