Looks like the NULL case is handled with PTR_ERR(-ENOENT), so IS_ERR()
would be sufficient. I think in the past kvm_gmem_get_folio() itself
would return NULL in some cases, but as of commit 2b01b7e994e95 that's
no longer the case.

I'll fix this up to expect only PTR_ERR() when I re-spin v14, and also
address the other kvm_gmem_get_folio() / __filemap_get_folio() call
sites.

Fixes: 2b01b7e994e95 ("KVM: guest_memfd: pass error up from filemap_grab_folio")

Will add that in the re-spin as well.

Thanks!
