Cheng-Yang Chou e36bc38ebf sched_ext: Fix uninitialized ret in scx_alloc_and_add_sched()
Under CONFIG_EXT_SUB_SCHED, the kzalloc() and kstrdup() failure
paths jump to err_stop_helper without first setting ret. The
function then returns ERR_PTR(ret) with ret uninitialized, which
can produce ERR_PTR(0) (NULL), causing the caller's IS_ERR() check
to pass and leading to a NULL pointer dereference.

Set ret = -ENOMEM before each goto to fix the error path.
