If there are multiple vivante,gc device nodes, this overwrites
etnaviv_drm with each additional device after the first one.

Also, it would be better to store NULL instead of the error value.

If there are multiple vivante,gc nodes, this will try to unregister the
last device multiple times. Also, this will break if the pointer
contains an error value.
