Since 16f7f9564c, we've seen
oopses when grouping/ungrouping devices:

The problem is that dev->driver_data for a ccw device is NULL,
while it should point to the ccwgroup device it is a member of.
This happened due to incorrect cleanup if creating a ccwgroup
device failed because the ccw devices were already grouped.
Fix this by setting cdev[i] to NULL in the error handling of
ccwgroup_create_from_string() after we give up our reference and
by checking if the driver_data points to the ccwgroup device in
ccwgroup_release() just to be really sure.
