[PATCH v3 2/3] mmap: Fix error paths with dup_anon_vma()

From: Liam R. Howlett
Date: Fri Sep 29 2023 - 14:31:27 EST


When the calling function fails after the dup_anon_vma(), the
duplication of the anon_vma is not being undone. Add the necessary
unlink_anon_vma() call to the error paths that are missing them.

This issue showed up during inspection of the error path in vma_merge()
for an unrelated vma iterator issue.

Users may experience increased memory usage, which may be problematic as
the failure would likely be caused by a low memory situation.

Fixes: d4af56c5c7c6 ("mm: start tracking VMAs with maple tree")
