Subject: media: bt8xx: Fix err 'bt878_probe()'

From: Christophe JAILLET <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 45392ff6881dbe56d41ef0b17c2e576065f8ffa1 ]

This is odd to call 'pci_disable_device()' in an error path before a coresponding successful 'pci_enable_device()'.

Return directly instead.

Fixes 77e0be12100a ("V4L/DVB (4176): Bug-fix: Fix memory overflow")
