A single bugfix for the ORC unwinder to ensure that the error flag which
tells the unwinding code whether a stack trace can be trusted or not is
always set correctly. This was messed up by a couple of changes in the
recent past.
x86/unwind/orc: Fix error handling in __unwind_start()

The unwind_state 'error' field is used to inform the reliable unwinding
code that the stack trace can't be trusted.  Set this field for all
errors in __unwind_start().

Also, move the zeroing out of the unwind_state struct to before the ORC
table initialization check, to prevent the caller from reading
uninitialized data if the ORC table is corrupted.
