[PATCH 3.14 16/17] KVM: ARM/arm64: avoid returning negative error code as bool

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

commit 18d457661fb9fa69352822ab98d39331c3d0e571 upstream.

is_valid_cache returns true if the specified cache is valid.
Unfortunately, if the parameter passed it out of range, we return
-ENOENT, which ends up as true leading to potential hilarity.

This patch returns false on the failure path instead.
