fbdev/hyperv_fb: Fix logic error for Gen2 VMs in hvfb_getmem()

Browse Source 
A recent commit removing the use of screen_info introduced a logic
error. The error causes hvfb_getmem() to always return -ENOMEM
for Generation 2 VMs. As a result, the Hyper-V frame buffer
device fails to initialize. The error was introduced by removing
an "else if" clause, leaving Gen2 VMs to always take the -ENOMEM
error path.

Fix the problem by removing the error path "else" clause. Gen 2
VMs now always proceed through the MMIO memory allocation code,
but with "base" and "size" defaulting to 0.
