Centralized exit except for cases where it is simply return.

How badly functioning hardware can bind and then report some different
ID? If it reports different ID, it cannot bind...

No, not really. User always can check via sysfs and there is no point in
polluting dmesg on module load. It might be printed (if someone has such
modprobe setting) on every system, even without the actual device.

Shouldn't this be link_up=false?
