Ok, these first three are fine for propigating up the proper errno in
configfs attribute context from within rd_build_device_space() ->
rd_create_virtdevice()

This one is actually within TCM backend struct
se_subsystem_api->do_task() execution context, and should be using the
PYX_TRANSPORT_* failure codes from target_core_transport.h.  I think
this needs to be returning PYX_TRANSPORT_OUT_OF_MEMORY_RESOURCES or
PYX_TRANSPORT_LU_COMM_FAILURE, which is then converted up to SCSI status
+sense for struct se_cmd in transport_generic_request_failure().

How about the following patch to address rd_build_device_space() with
errno.., and we address the rd_DIRECT_*_offset() allocation failure
cases in a seperate patch..?

Thanks!
