net: pcs: xpcs: fix error handling on failed to allocate memory

Browse Source 
Drivers such as sja1105 and stmmac that call xpcs_create() expects an
error returned by the pcs-xpcs module, but this was not the case on
failed to allocate memory.

Fixed this by returning an -ENOMEM instead of a NULL pointer.
