Subject: [086/264] pnfsblock: fix return code confusion

3.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jim Rees <rees@...ch.edu>

commit 516f2e24faa7548a61d9ba790958528469c2e284 upstream.

Always return PTR_ERR, not NULL, from nfs4_blk_get_deviceinfo and
nfs4_blk_decode_device.

Check for IS_ERR, not NULL, in bl_set_layoutdriver when calling
nfs4_blk_get_deviceinfo.
