If we fail to create our mmu notification, we report the error back and currently store the error inside the i915_mm_struct. This not only causes subsequent registerations of the same mm to fail (an issue if the first was interrupted by a signal and needed to be restarted) but also causes us to eventually try and free the error pointer.
