Wrong ordering, this needs to be last in the probe function

Return rc not -ENODEV

Wrong ordering, tpm_chip_unregister needs to be first

I'm under the impression devm does not work outside a device driver
context, so adding devm breaks force mode in this driver. Do you see
differently?

AFAIK the two options are to fix force mode so that it attaches the
dummy platform driver (that is what it is for after all) or remove
force mode.
