Subject: [PATCH 3/3] megaraid_sas: return -ENOMEM when create DMA pool for cmd frames failed

when create DMA pool for cmd frames failed, we should return -ENOMEM,
instead of 0.
In some case in:

    megasas_init_adapter_fusion()

    -->megasas_alloc_cmds()
       -->megasas_create_frame_pool
          create DMA pool failed,
        --> megasas_free_cmds() [1]

    -->megasas_alloc_cmds_fusion()
       failed, then goto fail_alloc_cmds.
    -->megasas_free_cmds() [2]

we will call megasas_free_cmds twice, [1] will kfree cmd_list,
[2] will use cmd_list.it will cause a problem:
