KVM: Fix a goof where kvm_create_vm() returns 0 instead of -ENOMEM
The error path for OOM when allocating buses used to return -ENOMEM using
the local variable 'r', where 'r' was initialized at the top of the
function. But a new "r = kvm_init_irq_routing(kvm);" was introduced in
the middle of the function, so now the error code is not set and it
eventually leads to a NULL dereference due to kvm_dev_ioctl_create_vm()
thinking kvm_create_vm() succeeded. Set the error code back to -ENOMEM.
Opportunistically tweak the logic to pre-set "r = -ENOMEM" immediately
before the flows that can fail due to memory allocation failure to make
it less likely that the bug recurs in the future.
