kvm: svm: fix unsigned compare less than zero comparison
vm_data->avic_vm_id is a u32, so the check for a error return (less than zero) such as -EAGAIN from avic_get_next_vm_id currently has no effect whatsoever. Fix this by using a temporary int for the comparison and assign vm_data->avic_vm_id to this. I used an explicit u32 cast in the assignment to show why vm_data->avic_vm_id cannot be used in the assign/compare steps.
