commit dbd3e6eaf3d813939b28e8a66e29d81cdc836445 upstream.
The removal function is called regardless of whether
/proc/i8k was created successfully or not, the later
causing a WARN() on module removal.
Fix that by only registering the removal function
if /proc/i8k was created successfully.
Tested on a Inspiron 3505.
Fixes: 039ae58503f3 ("hwmon: Allow to compile dell-smm-hwmon driver without /proc/i8k")
