vme: tsi148: Only store VME bus errors if they will be checked
The TSI148 driver provides an optional mechanism for ensuring that errors resulting from posted transfers are caught whilst still relevant. To do this errors are stored in a link list. If bus errors are not checked, this list would grow until available memory had been exhausted. Only store the errors in a link list if error detection is switched on.
