Re: [PATCH v3] comedi: Flush partial mappings in error case

If some remap_pfn_range() calls succeeded before one failed, we still have
buffer pages mapped into the userspace page tables when we drop the buffer
reference with comedi_buf_map_put(bm). The userspace mappings are only
cleaned up later in the mmap error path.

Fix it by explicitly flushing all mappings in our VMA on the error path.

See commit 79a61cc3fc04 ("mm: avoid leaving partial pfn mappings around in
error case").

Note: compile-tested only; I don't actually have comedi hardware, and I
don't know anything about comedi.

Changes in v3:
- gate zapping ptes on CONFIG_MMU (Intel kernel test robot)
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241015-comedi-tlb-v2-1-cafb0e27dd9a@xxxxxxxxxx

Changes in v2:
- only do the zapping in the pfnmap path (Ian Abbott)
- use zap_vma_ptes() instead of zap_page_range_single() (Ian Abbott)
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241014-comedi-tlb-v1-1-4b699144b438@xxxxxxxxxx

Perhaps that condition should be changed to `retval && i` since there will be no partial mappings left behind if the first call to `remap_pfn_range` failed.
