The two implementations of kvm_arch_create_memslot() in x86 and PPC are
both good citizens and free up all local resources if creation fails.
Return immediately (via a superfluous goto) instead of calling
kvm_free_memslot().

Note, the call to kvm_free_memslot() is effectively an expensive nop in
this case as there are no resources to be freed.

No functional change intended.

(I failed to understand why that is expensive.. but the change looks OK)
