free_anon_vma_name() is missing a check for anonymous shmem VMA which
leads to a memory leak due to refcount not being dropped. Fix this by
adding the missing check.

Wouldn't it be me more consistent to check for "vma->anon_name"?

That's what dup_anon_vma_name() checks. And it's safe now because anon_name is no longer overloaded in vm_area_struct.
