gluster: Correctly propagate errors when volume isn't accessible

The docs for glfs_init suggest that the function sets errno on every
failure. In fact it doesn't. As other functions such as
qemu_gluster_open() in the gluster block code report their errors based
on this fact we need to make sure that errno is set on each failure.

This fixes a crash of qemu-img/qemu when a gluster brick isn't
accessible from given host while the server serving the volume
description is.

Notes:
    I'm also going to report a bug in libgfapi too.

Please use scripts/checkpatch.pl to check coding style in the future.  I
added {} around the if statement body.  QEMU always uses curlies even
for 1-statement bodies.

Thanks, applied to my block tree:

Ah, right, sorry about that. I'm used to libvirt's coding style which
allows it. I'll use the patch checker next time.
