Subject: [PATCH -next] xen/evtchn_fifo: fix error return code in evtchn_fifo_setup()

From: Wei Yongjun <yongjun_wei@...ndmicro.com.cn>

Fix to return -ENOMEM from the error handling case instead of
0 (overwrited to 0 by the HYPERVISOR_event_channel_op call),
otherwise the error condition cann't be reflected from the
return value.
