Patch series "Fixes for MDWE prctl"
These are four small fixes for the recent memory-write-deny-execute prctl
patches [1]. Two reported by Alexey about error handling and two tooling
fixes by Peter.
This patch (of 4):
Commit cc8d1b097de7 ("mmap: clean up mmap_region() unrolling")
deduplicated the error handling, do the same for the return value of
`map_deny_write_exec`.

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.
