x86 PAT: remove PFNMAP type on track_pfn_vma_new() error
Impact: fix (harmless) double-free of memtype entries and avoid warning
On track_pfn_vma_new() failure, reset the vm_flags so that there will be
no second cleanup happening when upper level routines call unmap_vmas().
This patch fixes part of the bug reported here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123108883716357&w=2
Specifically the error message:
X:5010 freeing invalid memtype d0000000-d0101000
Is due to multiple frees on error path, will not happen with the patch below.
