[PATCH] drm/amdkfd: potential error pointer dereference in ioctl

The "target" either comes from kfd_create_process() which returns error
pointers on error or kfd_lookup_process_by_pid() which returns NULL on
error.  So we need to check for both types of errors.

I'm not sure how to compile this code or why I'm seeing this warning
again after two years...  Very strange.
