[PATCH 5.15 339/917] virtio-gpu: fix possible memory allocation failure

From: liuyuntao <liuyuntao10@huawei.com>

[ Upstream commit 5bd4f20de8acad37dbb3154feb34dbc36d506c02 ]

When kmem_cache_zalloc in virtio_gpu_get_vbuf fails, it will return
an error code. But none of its callers checks this error code, and
a core dump will take place.

Considering many of its callers can't handle such error, I add
a __GFP_NOFAIL flag when calling kmem_cache_zalloc to make sure
it won't fail, and delete those unused error handlings.
