Fix inverted error check in virgl_cmd_resource_create_blob() that causes
the function to return error when virtio_gpu_create_mapping_iov() succeeds.
virtio_gpu_create_mapping_iov() returns 0 on success and negative values
on error. The check 'if (!ret)' incorrectly treats success (ret=0) as an
error condition, causing the function to fail when it should succeed.
Change the condition to 'if (ret != 0)' to properly detect errors.
Fixes: 7c092f17ccee ("virtio-gpu: Handle resource blob commands")

Unify error checking style for virtio_gpu_create_mapping_iov() across the
codebase to improve consistency and readability.
virtio_gpu_create_mapping_iov() returns 0 on success and negative values
on error. The original code used inconsistent patterns for checking errors:
- Some used 'if (ret != 0)' in virtio-gpu-virgl.c and virtio-gpu.c
- Some used 'CHECK(!ret, cmd)' in virtio-gpu-rutabaga.c
For if-statement checks, change to 'if (ret < 0)' which is the preferred
QEMU coding convention for functions that return 0 on success and negative
on error. This makes the return value convention immediately clear to code
readers.
For CHECK macro usage in virtio-gpu-rutabaga.c, keep the original
'CHECK(!ret, cmd)' pattern as it is more concise and consistent with other
error checks in the same file.

Is this a qemu-stable material? I'm a bit confused here. The first
patch looks like it is, the second I can't decide.
Please let me know if I should pick this up for qemu-stable or not.
For now I'm picking up the first change.
Thanks,

I think that's fine.

Looks like these patches where already pulled via another tree.
