KVM: PPC: Book3S: Fix H_RTAS rets buffer overflow
The kvmppc_rtas_hcall() sets the host rtas_args.rets pointer based on the rtas_args.nargs that was provided by the guest. That guest nargs value is not range checked, so the guest can cause the host rets pointer to be pointed outside the args array. The individual rtas function handlers check the nargs and nrets values to ensure they are correct, but if they are not, the handlers store a -3 (0xfffffffd) failure indication in rets[0] which corrupts host memory. Fix this by testing up front whether the guest supplied nargs and nret would exceed the array size, and fail the hcall directly without storing a failure indication to rets[0]. Also expand on a comment about why we kill the guest and try not to return errors directly if we have a valid rets[0] pointer.
