Ian Forbes 36cb28b6d3 drm/vmwgfx: Return the correct value in vmw_translate_ptr functions
[ Upstream commit 5023ca80f9 ]

Before the referenced fixes these functions used a lookup function that
returned a pointer. This was changed to another lookup function that
returned an error code with the pointer becoming an out parameter.

The error path when the lookup failed was not changed to reflect this
change and the code continued to return the PTR_ERR of the now
uninitialized pointer. This could cause the vmw_translate_ptr functions
to return success when they actually failed causing further uninitialized
and OOB accesses.
