Yes, but only for a few patches until kvm_s390_vcpu_setup() is introduced,
at which point @rc is unconditionally set at the end.

        rc = kvm_s390_vcpu_setup(vcpu);
        if (rc)
                goto out_free_ucontrol_gmap;
        return 0;

My personal preference is to use "return 0;" when the return is known to
be zero as it makes the success path obvious at a glance.  I also didn't
want to intialize @rc at he beginning because then the sie_page allocation
would look a bit funky:

	int rc = 0;

        BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(struct sie_page) != 4096);
        sie_page = (struct sie_page *) get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL);
        if (!sie_page)
                return -ENOMEM;


An alternative would be to init @rc to -ENOMEM:

        int rc = -ENOMEM;

        BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(struct sie_page) != 4096);
        sie_page = (struct sie_page *) get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL);
        if (!sie_page)
                return rc;

This would be my preference if you'd prefer to init @rc right away,
especially if  __kvm_ucontrol_vcpu_init() is open coded here (discussion
in patch 35, "KVM: s390: Manually invoke vcpu setup during 
kvm_arch_vcpu_create()", e.g.:

        int rc = -ENOMEM;

        BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(struct sie_page) != 4096);
        sie_page = (struct sie_page *) get_zeroed_page(GFP_KERNEL);
        if (!sie_page)
                return rc;

	...

        if (kvm_is_ucontrol(vcpu->kvm)) {
                vcpu->arch.gmap = gmap_create(current->mm, -1UL);
                if (!vcpu->arch.gmap)
                        goto out_free_sie_block;
                vcpu->arch.gmap->private = vcpu->kvm;
        }

        VM_EVENT(kvm, 3, "create cpu %d at 0x%pK, sie block at 0x%pK", id, vcpu,
                 vcpu->arch.sie_block);
        trace_kvm_s390_create_vcpu(id, vcpu, vcpu->arch.sie_block);

        rc = kvm_s390_vcpu_setup(vcpu);
        if (rc)
                goto out_free_ucontrol_gmap;
        return 0;

out_free_ucontrol_gmap:
        if (kvm_is_ucontrol(vcpu->kvm))
                gmap_remove(vcpu->arch.gmap);
out_free_sie_block:
        free_page((unsigned long)(vcpu->arch.sie_block));
        return rc;
