Return a negative error code if the transport doesn't match.  Don't
return success.

Thanks for this fix. I think we have a similar issue also in
net/vmw_vsock/vmci_transport.c introduced by the same commit.
In net/vmw_vsock/hyperv_transport.c we have a similar pattern, but the
calling function return void, so no issue there.

Do you mind to fix also that one?
Sure.  I will resend a v2.

The check doesn't catch that one because the != comparison is
hidden inside the vmci_check_transport() call.  So I would have missed
it.  Thanks for catching it.

regards,
dan carpenter
