Shouldn't the above be changed to a "goto nomem" instead of "return ret" ?

Maybe a stupid question, but why can't we do this unlinking inside
dup_anon_vma() itself when anon_vma_clone() fails? That would
eliminate the need for the out parameter in that function. I suspect
that there is a reason for that which I'm missing.
