Commit a97b0e773e (kvm: call kvm_arch_destroy_vm if vm creation fails)
sets users_count to 1 before kvm_arch_init_vm(), however, if kvm_arch_init_vm()
fails, we need to decrease this count. By moving it earlier, we can push
the decrease to out_err_no_arch_destroy_vm without introducing yet another
error label.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
