Unify error checking style for virtio_gpu_create_mapping_iov() across the
codebase to improve consistency and readability.
virtio_gpu_create_mapping_iov() returns 0 on success and negative values
on error. The original code used inconsistent patterns for checking errors:
- Some used 'if (ret != 0)'
- Some used 'CHECK(!ret, cmd)'
- Some used 'CHECK(!result, cmd)'
Change all checks to use the consistent 'if (ret < 0)' or 'CHECK(ret >= 0)'
patterns, following the preferred QEMU coding convention for functions that
return 0 on success and negative on error. This makes the return value
convention immediately clear to code readers without needing to look up
the function definition.
Updated locations:

How about split patch 1 and patch 2 into different threads, for the error checking style I will submit a another thread, maybe change the virtio_gpu_create_mapping_iov return value to true or false is a better choice?
