Subject: [PATCH] net: stmmac: fix errno when create_singlethread_workqueue() fails

We should set the return value to -ENOMEM explicitly when
create_singlethread_workqueue() fails in stmmac_dvr_probe(),
otherwise we'll lose the error value.

Fixes: a137f3f27f92 ("net: stmmac: fix possible memory leak in stmmac_dvr_probe()")
