map->table is assigned right after dma_buf_map_attachment_unlocked()
succeeds. The two failure checks that follow, the len > map->size test
and, where subsystem VMIDs are configured, a failed qcom_scm_assign_mem(),
jump to map_err with map->table already set.

map_err manually calls dma_buf_detach() and dma_buf_put() and then falls
through to fastrpc_map_put(). Since that change the error path tail is
fastrpc_map_put() -> fastrpc_free_map(), and fastrpc_free_map() already
unmaps, detaches and puts the dma-buf whenever map->table is set.
The two operations therefore run twice: the second dma_buf_put() drops an
extra reference on map->buf, and dma_buf_unmap_attachment_unlocked()
dereferences the map->attach already freed by the manual dma_buf_detach().
kref_init() sets the refcount to 1 with no intervening get, so the final
fastrpc_map_put() frees the map synchronously and the redundant cleanup is
deterministic.

The len > map->size branch is reachable by an unprivileged process via
FASTRPC_IOCTL_MEM_MAP with an fd whose dma-buf is smaller than the
requested length, before any DSP invocation.

Route both map->table-is-set failure branches to get_err instead of
map_err, so fastrpc_free_map() is the single owner of the
unmap/detach/put sequence. map_err is retained for the
dma_buf_map_attachment_unlocked() failure, which is reached with
map->table still NULL and an attachment that fastrpc_free_map() will not
clean up, so its dma_buf_detach()/dma_buf_put() must still run manually.

v2:
 - Instead of clearing map->table, route the map->table-is-set failure
   paths (len > map->size and the qcom_scm_assign_mem() failure) to
   get_err so fastrpc_free_map() is the single owner of the
   unmap/detach/put sequence. The map_err label is kept for the
   dma_buf_map_attachment_unlocked() failure, where map->table is still
   NULL. Suggested by Dmitry Baryshkov.
