cciss: fix proc warning on attempt to remove non-existant directory



Randy reports that he gets the following stack trace when
removing the cciss module:

which will happen if you don't actually have an HP CISS adapter,
since it'll do an uncondional removal of a proc directory it
never attempted to create in that case.
