vhost-scsi: Fix check for inline_sg_cnt exceeding preallocated limit

The condition comparing ret to VHOST_SCSI_PREALLOC_SGLS was incorrect,
as ret holds the result of kstrtouint() (typically 0 on success),
not the parsed value. Update the check to use cnt, which contains the
actual user-provided value.

prevents silently accepting values exceeding the maximum inline_sg_cnt.
