Useless statement must be return with argument.

This patch silences a compiler warning:
drivers/misc/enclosure.c: In function ‘enclosure_component_register’:
drivers/misc/enclosure.c:289: warning: ignoring return value of ‘ERR_PTR’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result

I've actually put it in my tree this time ...
