net: Expose some errors generated in net_init
net_init does not always succeed, and there is no existing mechanism to discover errors. This patch allows callers of net_init (such as net_init) to handle errors. The root issue is that eth_get_dev can fail, but net_init_loop doesn't expose that. The ideal way to fix eth_get_dev would be to return an error with ERR_PTR, but there are a lot of callers, and all of them just check if it's NULL. Another approach would be to change the signature to something like int eth_get_dev(struct udevice **pdev) but that would require rewriting all of the many callers.
