Provide a descriptive error in case an lport to rport association
isn't found when creating the FC-NVME controller.

Currently it's very hard to debug the reason for a failed connect
attempt without a look at the source.

This actually happened to Hannes and me becuase of a typo in a
customer demo today, so yes things like this happen unitl we have a
proper way to do auto-connect.
