User controlled KVM guests do not support the dirty log, as they have no single gmap that we can check for changes. As they have no single gmap, kvm->arch.gmap is NULL and all further referencing to it for dirty checking will result in a NULL dereference. Let's return -EINVAL if a caller tries to sync dirty logs for a UCONTROL guest. Fixes: 15f36eb ("KVM: s390: Add proper dirty bitmap support to S390 kvm.")
