[RESEND PATCH] soundwire: add slave device to linked list after device_register()

From: Pierre-Louis Bossart <pierre-louis.bossart at linux.intel.com>

We currently add the slave device to a linked list before
device_register(), and then remove it if device_register() fails.

It's not clear why this sequence was necessary, this patch moves the
linked list management to after the device_register().
