[PATCH] arch/powerpc/kvm: kvmppc_core_vcpu_create_hv: check for kzalloc failure

kvmppc_vcore_create() might not be able to allocate memory through
kzalloc. In that case the kvm->arch.online_vcores shouldn't be
incremented.
Add a check for kzalloc failure and return with -ENOMEM from
kvmppc_core_vcpu_create_hv().
