In function c4iw_rdev_open(), the value of return variable err should be
negative on errors. However, when the call to __get_free_page() returns
a NULL pointer, its value is not set to "-ENOMEM" and keeps 0. 0 means
no error. And thus, the behavior of its caller may be misled. This patch
fixes the bug.
