Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 134/144] KVM: remove redundant assignments in __kvm_set_memory_region

3.16.7-ckt10 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@...ibm.com>

commit f2a25160887e00434ce1361007009120e1fecbda upstream.

__kvm_set_memory_region sets r to EINVAL very early.
Doing it again is not necessary. The same is true later on, where
r is assigned -ENOMEM twice.
