The root cause was traced to an error handing path in mmap_region() when
arch_validate_flags() or mas_preallocate() fails. In the shared anonymous
mapping sence, vma will be setuped and mapped with a new shared anonymous
file via shmem_zero_setup(). So in this case, the file resource needs to
be released.
Fix it by calling fput(vma->vm_file) and unmap_region() when
arch_validate_flags() or mas_preallocate() returns an error in the shared
anonymous mapping sence.

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.
