Subject: [PATCH][next] drm/i915/gtt: set err to -ENOMEM on memory allocation failure

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

Currently when the allocation of ppgtt->work fails the error return
path via err_free returns an uninitialized value in err. Fix this
by setting err to the appropriate error return of -ENOMEM.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: d3622099c76f ("drm/i915/gtt: Always acquire struct_mutex for gen6_ppgtt_cleanup")
