media: cec: Fix debugfs leak on bus_register() failure

commit c43bcd2b2aa3c2ca9d2433c3990ecbc2c47d10eb upstream.

In cec_devnode_init(), the debugfs directory created with
debugfs_create_dir() is not removed if bus_register() fails.
This leaves a stale "cec" entry in debugfs and prevents
proper module reloading.

Fix this by removing the debugfs directory in the error path.
