The error unrolling was leaving the VMAs detached in many cases and leaving the locked_vm statistic altered, and skipping the unrolling entirely in the case of the vma tree write failing. Fix the error path by re-attaching the detached VMAs and adding the necessary goto for the failed vma tree write, and fix the locked_vm statistic by only updating after the vma tree write succeeds.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
