[media] videobuf-dvb: avoid spurious ENOMEM when CONFIG_DVB_NET=n
videobuf_dvb_register_bus relies on dvb_net_init to set dvbnet->dvbdev on success, but ever since commit fcc8e7d8 ("dvb_net: Simplify the code if DVB NET is not defined"), ->dvbdev is left unset when networking support is disabled. Therefore in such configurations videobuf_dvb_register_bus always returns failure, tripping little-tested error handling paths and preventing the device from being initialized and used. Now that dvb_net_init returns a nonzero value on error, we can use that as a more reliable error indication. Do so. Now your card be used with CONFIG_DVB_NET=n, and the kernel will pass on a more useful error code describing what happened when CONFIG_DVB_NET=y but dvb_net_init fails due to resource exhaustion.
