Subject: mm/mmap: undo ->mmap() when mas_preallocate() fails
Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2022 19:49:45 -0700

A memory leak in hugetlb_reserve_pages was reported in [1].  The root
cause was traced to an error path in mmap_region when mas_preallocate()
fails.  In this case, the vma is freed after a successful call to
filesystem specific mmap.  The hugetlbfs mmap routine may allocate data
structures pointed to by m_private_data.  These need to be cleaned up by
the hugetlb vm_ops->close() routine.

The same issue was addressed by commit deb0f6562884 ("mm/mmap: undo
->mmap() when arch_validate_flags() fails") for the arch_validate_flags()
test.  Go to the same close_and_free_vma label if mas_preallocate() fails.
