mac80211_hwsim: correctly register the platform driver
Not registering a platform_driver would make us access garbage
when the platform callbacks under driver_register() kicks in.

Note: the parent commit suffers from a NULL pointer dereference BUG (2nd attached dmesg)
in the same init_mac80211_hwsim(). So it's not necessarily the problem
introduced by c07fe5ae0667. Anyway I'm reporting it to you in the hope that
you are (or can find) the most relevant people for looking into this problem.
