The return value from vhost_task_create is incorrect if the kzalloc fails.
Christian, here is a fix for what's in your tree. Do you want me to submit
a follow up patch like this or a replacement patch for:
commit 77feab3c4156 ("vhost_task: Allow vhost layer to use copy_process")
with the fix rolled into it?

Subject: [PATCH] vhost_task: Fix vhost_task_create return value
vhost_task_create is supposed to return the vhost_task or NULL on
failure. This fixes it to return the correct value when the allocation
of the struct fails.
