The kvm-arm64/mmu-fixes-7.4 merge dropped the return from the
kvm_gmem_get_pfn() error path in gmem_abort(). Both parents of the
merge keep that return. On a failed kvm_gmem_get_pfn(), gmem_abort()
then carries on with a zero pfn, and on a nested stage-2 it uses the
mapping it has just freed.
Restore the return.
Fixes: 65f95b2874a15 ("Merge branch kvm-arm64/mmu-fixes-7.4 into kvmarm-master/next")

Notes:
I went through the rest of the merge's conflict resolution with
git show --remerge-diff, and this is the only line it dropped.
