mfd: max77686: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference on i2c_new_dummy error

Browse Source 
During probe the driver allocates dummy I2C device for RTC with
i2c_new_dummy() but it does not check the return value of this call.

In case of error (i2c_new_device(): memory allocation failure or I2C
address cannot be used) this function returns NULL which is later used
by i2c_unregister_device().

If i2c_new_dummy() fails for RTC device, fail also the probe for main
MFD driver.
