The main point is that the code workflow should be the same in both
cases. The patch does that for virtio_gpu_modeset_init() but doesn't
for virtio_gpu_modeset_fini().

Return early in the functions (and drop the #ifdef here) is how I would
implement this, but I wouldn't insist on that, there are other ways to
solve this too ;)

take care,
