Subject: [PATCH 4.9 109/207] s390/gmap: dont unconditionally call pte_unmap_unlock() in __gmap_zap()

From: David Hildenbrand <david@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit b159f94c86b43cf7e73e654bc527255b1f4eafc4 ]

... otherwise we will try unlocking a spinlock that was never locked via a
garbage pointer.

At the time we reach this code path, we usually successfully looked up
a PGSTE already; however, evil user space could have manipulated the VMA
layout in the meantime and triggered removal of the page table.
