[PATCH] KVM: arm64: ITS: return 1 on successful MSI injection

According to the KVM API documentation a successful MSI injection
should return a value > 0 on success.
Since we pass the return value of vgic_its_inject_msi() directly on
to upper layers and userland, we need to use the same semantics here.
Briefly tested with QEMU and kvmtool on GICv3 hardware and the model.

Applies on top of next-20160728. Let me know if I should use a
different base.

Cheers,
Andre.
