[PATCH v6 18/20] KVM: introduce kvm_check_device_type()

While we can easily register and unregister KVM devices, there is
currently no easy way of checking whether a device has been
registered.
Introduce kvm_check_device_type() for that purpose and use it in two
existing functions. Also change the return code for an invalid
type number from ENOSPC to EINVAL.
This function will be later used by another patch set to check
whether a KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP ioctl is valid.
