floppy: Cleanup disk->queue before caling put_disk() if add_disk() was never called
add_disk() takes gendisk reference on request queue. If driver failed during initialization and never called add_disk() then that extra reference is not taken. That reference is put in put_disk(). floppy driver allocates the disk, allocates queue, sets disk->queue and then relizes that floppy controller is not present. It tries to tear down everything and tries to put a reference down in put_disk() which was never taken. In such error cases cleanup disk->queue before calling put_disk() so that we never try to put down a reference which was never taken in first place.
