ACPI: APEI: EINJ: Do not fail einj_init() on faux_device_create() failure
CXL has a symbol dependency on einj_core.ko, so if einj_init() fails then
cxl_core.ko fails to load. Prior to the faux_device_create() conversion,
einj_probe() failures were tracked by the einj_initialized flag without
failing einj_init().
Revert to that behavior and always succeed einj_init() given there is no
way, and no pressing need, to discern faux device-create vs device-probe
failures.
This situation arose because CXL knows proper kernel named objects to
trigger errors against, but acpi-einj knows how to perform the error
injection. The injection mechanism is shared with non-CXL use cases. The
result is CXL now has a module dependency on einj-core.ko, and init/probe
failures are handled at runtime.
