staging: speakup: more fixes for init-failure handling.
We still leaked many resources when Speakup failed to initialize. Examples of leaked resources include: /dev/synth, keyboard or VT notifiers, and heap-allocated st_spk_t structs. This is fixed. * We now use PTR_ERR to detect kthread_create failure (thank you Dan Carpenter). * The loop which frees members of the speakup_console array now iterates over the whole array, not stopping at the first NULL value. Fixes a possible memory leak. Safe because kfree(NULL) is a no-op. * The order of some initializations was changed. The safe ones, which will never fail, are performed first.
