xen/arm: Fail domain construction if a secondary vCPU cannot be created
construct_domain() creates the secondary vCPUs in a loop, but on a
vcpu_create() failure it only prints a message and breaks out of the
loop returning success. As a result the domain can be partially
constructed with fewer vCPUs than d->max_vcpus. This causes two contract
violations:
- Xen-Guest: domain's FDT is generated before vCPU creation - Xen exposes
incorrect information (e.g. two vCPUs listed in a device tree while only
one is actually created),
- User-Xen: unlike x86, on Arm port we try to bail out as soon as
possible on unsatisfied user requests (e.g. user requested two vCPUs
for a domain but it was created with only one).
Return an error instead of breaking out of the loop. Both callers
(construct_domU() and construct_hwdom()) already propagate a negative
return value and fail domain construction.
