[ Upstream commit defd8b3c37b0f9cb3e0f60f47d3d78d459d57fda ]
When sockfd_lookup() fails, gtp_encap_enable_socket() returns a NULL pointer, but its callers only check for error pointers thus miss the NULL pointer case.
Fix it by returning an error pointer with the error code carried from sockfd_lookup().
(I found this bug during code inspection.)
