KVM: x86/mmu: simplify kvm_tdp_mmu_map flow when guest has to retry

A removed SPTE is never present, hence the "if" in kvm_tdp_mmu_map
only fails in the exact same conditions that the earlier loop
tested in order to issue a  "break". So, instead of checking twice the
condition (upper level SPTEs could not be created or was frozen), just
exit the loop with a goto---the usual poor-man C replacement for RAII
early returns.

While at it, do not use the "ret" variable for return values of
functions that do not return a RET_PF_* enum.  This is clearer
and also makes it possible to initialize ret to RET_PF_RETRY.
