Subject: target/pscsi: fix return value check

commit 58932e96e438cd78f75e765d7b87ef39d3533d15 upstream.

In case of error, the function scsi_host_lookup() returns NULL
pointer not ERR_PTR(). The IS_ERR() test in the return value check
should be replaced with NULL test.

[ luis: backported to 3.5:
  - adjusted context
  - use ERR_PTR macro in pscsi_create_virtdevice(), as function returns
    a pointer ]
