x86/resctrl: Fix rdt_find_domain() return value and checks



rdt_find_domain() returns an ERR_PTR() that is generated from a provided
domain id when the value is negative.

Care needs to be taken when creating an ERR_PTR() from this value
because a subsequent check using IS_ERR() expects the error to
be within the MAX_ERRNO range. Using an invalid domain id as an
ERR_PTR() does work at this time since this is currently always -1.
Using this undocumented assumption is fragile since future users of
rdt_find_domain() may not be aware of thus assumption.

Two related issues are addressed:

- Ensure that rdt_find_domain() always returns a valid error value by
forcing the error to be -ENODEV when a negative domain id is provided.

- In a few instances the return value of rdt_find_domain() is just
checked for NULL - fix these to include a check of ERR_PTR.
