KVM: riscv: Fix infinite loop in NACL hfence entry allocation

Browse source

try_count is initialized to 5 but never decremented in the retry path,
making the `if (try_count)` check always true. If all NACL shared memory
hfence entries remain in the pending state after sync, the function loops
forever, causing a soft lockup. Decrement try_count on each retry so the
fallback warning and return become reachable.
