If srp_connect_ch() returns a positive value then that is considered
by its caller as a connection failure but this does not result in a
scsi_host_put() call and additionally causes the srp_create_target()
function to return a positive value while it should return a negative
value. Avoid all this confusion and additionally fix a memory leak by
ensuring that srp_connect_ch() always returns a value that is <= 0.
This patch avoids that a rejected login triggers the following memory
leak:
unreferenced object 0xffff88021b24a220 (size 8):
comm "srp_daemon", pid 56421, jiffies 4295006762 (age 4240.750s)
