block/rnbd-clt: Improve find_or_create_sess() return check



clang static analysis reports this problem

rnbd-clt.c:1212:11: warning: Branch condition evaluates to a
  garbage value
        else if (!first)
                 ^~~~~~

This is triggered in the find_and_get_or_create_sess() call
because the variable first is not initialized and the
earlier check is specifically for

	if (sess == ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM))

This is false positive.

But the if-check can be reduced by initializing first to
false and then returning if the call to find_or_creat_sess()
does not set it to true.  When it remains false, either
sess will be valid or not.  The not case is caught by
find_and_get_or_create_sess()'s caller rnbd_clt_map_device()

	sess = find_and_get_or_create_sess(...);
	if (IS_ERR(sess))
		return ERR_CAST(sess);

Since find_and_get_or_create_sess() initializes first to false
setting it in find_or_create_sess() is not needed.
