lcd_device_register may return ERR_PTR, so a check is added for this value
before the dereference.  All of the other changes reorganize the error
handling code in this function to avoid duplicating all of it in the added
case.

In the original code, in one case, the global variable fb_buffer was set to
NULL in error code that appears after this variable is initialized.  This
is done now in all error handling code that has this property.
