Previous changes move to use ERR_PTR(-ENOTSUPP), but it's not clear
what implementations can return in case of errors. Explicitly document
that NULL is not a possible return value, only ERR_PTR with a negative
error code is valid.

Fixes: 308811a327c38 ('ASoC: soc-dai: return proper error for get_sdw_stream()')
