netfilter: x_tables: simplify IS_ERR_OR_NULL to NULL test

Since commit 7926dbfa4bc1 ("netfilter: don't use
mutex_lock_interruptible()"), the function xt_find_table_lock can only
return NULL on an error.  Simplify the call sites and update the
comment before the function.

The semantic patch that change the code is as follows:

t = \(xt_find_table_lock(...)\|
      try_then_request_module(xt_find_table_lock(...),...)\)
