The err_remove_chip block is too coarse, and may perform cleanup that
must not be done.  E.g. if of_gpiochip_add() fails, of_gpiochip_remove()
is still called, causing:

    OF: ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on /soc/gpio@e6050000

and later, if a GPIO consumer tries to use a GPIO from a failed
controller:

Fix this by splitting the cleanup block, and adding a missing call to
gpiochip_irqchip_remove().
