uio: ensure class is registered before devices

When both uio and the uio drivers are built in the kernel, it is possible
for a driver to register devices before the uio class is registered.

This may result in a NULL pointer dereference later on in
get_device_parent() when accessing the class glue_dirs spinlock.

The trace looks like that:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000140

[<ffff0000083fb918>] __pci_register_driver+0x40/0x48

Return EPROBE_DEFER in that case so the driver can register the device
later.
