[PATCH] mm/hugetlb: fix error code in hugetlbfs_alloc_inode

[Wanpeng Li]

From: Wanpeng Li <liwp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When kmem_cache_alloc fails alloc slab object from
hugetlbfs_inode_cachep, return -ENOMEM in usual. But
hugetlbfs_alloc_inode implementation has inconsitency
with it and returns NULL. Fix it to return -ENOMEM.
