sunrpc: Don't return NULL from rpcb_create
> The reason for this is in the future, we may want to support additional > address family types. We should, therefore, ensure that every piece of > code that is sensitive to address families fail in some orderly manner > to let developers know where a change is needed. Makes sense.
