[PATCH 2/2] vhost-scsi: Improve error handling in vhost_scsi_make_nexus and tpg

[Alok Tiwari]

Use PTR_ERR to return the actual error code when vhost_scsi_make_nexus
fails to create a session, instead of returning -ENOMEM.
This ensures more accurate error propagation.

Replace NULL with ERR_PTR(ret) in vhost_scsi_make_tpg to follow kernel
conventions for pointer-returning functions, allowing callers to use
IS_ERR and PTR_ERR for proper error handling.
