Sorry for noticing this late. This patch is incorrect because
shmem->pages must be NULLed on error, otherwise
virtio_gpu_cleanup_object() will crash :/

I also had a patch that fixes this problem [1] and it did it properly. I
see that this patch is in -next already, so will update my patch to fix
the fix now.
