[PATCH] net: liquidio: Check soft command allocation in lio_main setup_nic_devices()

[Haoxiang Li]

octeon_alloc_soft_command() returns NULL when the soft command buffer
pool is empty. setup_nic_devices() dereferences the returned pointer
immediately when preparing the interface configuration command, which
can lead to a NULL pointer dereference if the pool is exhausted.

Return -ENOMEM when the allocation fails and let the existing NIC init
failure path handle the error.

Fixes: f21fb3ed364b ("Add support of Cavium Liquidio ethernet adapters")
