Subject: [ 35/70] dm thin: fix memory leak in process_prepared_mapping error paths

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Joe Thornber <ejt@...hat.com>

commit 905386f82d08f66726912f303f3e6605248c60a3 upstream.

Fix memory leak in process_prepared_mapping by always freeing
the dm_thin_new_mapping structs from the mapping_pool mempool on
the error paths.
