KVM: s390: pci: Fix missing error codes and memory unaccounting

This commit fixes error paths in kvm_s390_pci_aif_enable() to properly
propagate error codes on failure and rollback memory accounting.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but can calling the KVM_S390_ZPCIOP_REG_AEN ioctl
multiple times on the same device cause resource leaks?

Looking at kvm_s390_pci_aif_enable(), there doesn't appear to be a check to
verify if Adapter Interruption Forwarding (AIF) is already enabled for the
device. If it is called repeatedly, it seems account_mem() will blindly
overwrite kzdev->user_account and kzdev->mm_account:

arch/s390/kvm/pci.c:account_mem() {
    ...
    kzdev->user_account = user;
    kzdev->mm_account = current->mm;

    return 0;
}

Does this leave the previously allocated airq_iv and sbv bits leaked, along
with the previous user_struct and mmgrab references? It also looks like this
would permanently elevate the locked_vm and pinned_vm counts for those pages,
which could potentially lead to memory exhaustion on the host.
