[PATCH] scsi: libfc: pass an error pointer to fc_disc_error()
This patch is basically to silence a static checker warning. drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_disc.c:326 fc_disc_error() warn: passing a valid pointer to 'PTR_ERR' It doesn't affect runtime because it treats -ENOMEM and a valid pointer the same. But the documentation says we should be passing an error pointer.
