In other places you use
"
ret = vfio_ap_mdev_verify_no_sharing(matrix_mdev);
if (ret)
goto share_err;
"
then why use a boolean here?

If you want to return a boolean and you do not want to use !! you can do:

...
ret = vfio_ap_mdev_verify_no_sharing(NULL, apm, aqm);
...
return (ret) ? false : true;
