vfio/type1: Prune vfio_pin_page_external()
With vfio_lock_acct() testing the locked memory limit under mmap_sem, it's redundant to do it here for a single page. We can also reorder our tests such that we can avoid testing for reserved pages if we're not doing accounting and let vfio_lock_acct() test the process CAP_IPC_LOCK. Finally, this function oddly returns 1 on success. Update to return zero on success, -errno on error. Since the function only pins a single page, there's no need to return the number of pages pinned. N.B. vfio_pin_pages_remote() can pin a large contiguous range of pages before calling vfio_lock_acct(). If we were to similarly remove the extra test there, a user could temporarily pin far more pages than they're allowed.
