e4463e49e2 staging: most: avoid null pointer dereference when iface is null
In the case where the pointer iface is null then the reporting of this
error will dereference iface when printing an error message causing which
is not ideal.  Since the majority of callers to most_register_interface
report an error when -EINVAL is returned a simple fix is to just remove
the error message, I doubt it will be missed.

5e56bc06e1 most: core: use function subsys_initcall()
This patch replaces function module_init() with subsys_initcall().
It is needed to ensure that the core module of the driver is
initialized before a component tries to register with the core. This
leads to a NULL pointer dereference if the driver is configured as
in-tree.

This patch moves the core module to the /drivers/most directory
and makes all necessary changes in order to not break the build.
