Subject: percpu: clean up all mappings when pcpu_map_pages() fails
Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2024 19:43:46 +0000

In pcpu_map_pages(), if __pcpu_map_pages() fails on a CPU, we call
__pcpu_unmap_pages() to clean up mappings on all CPUs where mappings were
created, but not on the CPU where __pcpu_map_pages() fails.

__pcpu_map_pages() and __pcpu_unmap_pages() are wrappers around
vmap_pages_range_noflush() and vunmap_range_noflush().  All other callers
of vmap_pages_range_noflush() call vunmap_range_noflush() when mapping
fails, except pcpu_map_pages().  The reason could be that partial mappings
may be left behind from a failed mapping attempt.

Call __pcpu_unmap_pages() for the failed CPU as well in pcpu_map_pages().

This was found by code inspection, no failures or bugs were observed.
