netvsc: use ERR_PTR to avoid dereference issues The rndis_filter_device_add function is called both in probe context and RTNL context,and creates the netvsc_device inner structure. It is easier to get the RTNL lock annotation correct if it returns the object directly, rather than implicitly by updating network device private data.
