KVM: guest_memfd: delay folio_mark_uptodate() until after successful preparation


The up-to-date flag as is now is not too useful; it tells guest_memfd not
to overwrite the contents of a folio, but it doesn't say that the page
is ready to be mapped into the guest.  For encrypted guests, mapping
a private page requires that the "preparation" phase has succeeded,
and at the same time the same page cannot be prepared twice.

So, ensure that folio_mark_uptodate() is only called on a prepared page.  If
kvm_gmem_prepare_folio() or the post_populate callback fail, the folio
will not be marked up-to-date; it's not a problem to call clear_highpage()
again on such a page prior to the next preparation attempt.
