The first eb_relocate calls eb_lookup_vma triggers the failure and exit
from execbuf. In that path, we mark the current index as the sentinel
(err_vma: eb->vma[i] = NULL) which means we do not clear the last vma
when unwinding in eb_release_vmas. So the vma->exec_flags was carried
over into the next execbuf call from userspace.
