[PATCH 1/3] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Stop returning internal values to userspace

Our kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run currently returns the RESUME_HOST values
to userspace, against the API of the KVM_RUN ioctl which returns 0 on
success.

This was noticed while enabling the kvm selftests for powerpc. There's
an assert at the _vcpu_run function when we return a value different
from the expected.
