mmap: fix error paths with dup_anon_vma()

Browse source 
commit 824135c46b upstream.

When the calling function fails after the dup_anon_vma(), the
duplication of the anon_vma is not being undone.  Add the necessary
unlink_anon_vma() call to the error paths that are missing them.

This issue showed up during inspection of the error path in vma_merge()
for an unrelated vma iterator issue.

Users may experience increased memory usage, which may be problematic as
the failure would likely be caused by a low memory situation.
