drm/qxl: fix use of uninitialized variable

In function qxl_release_alloc(), when kmalloc() returns a NULL pointer,
it returns value 0 and parameter *ret is uninitialized. 0 means no error
to the callers of qxl_release_alloc(). The callers keep going and will
try to reference the uninitialized variable. This patch fixes the bug,
returning "-ENOMEM" when kmalloc() fails.
