Xen/x86: don't bail early from clear_foreign_p2m_mapping()



stable inclusion
from linux-4.19.177
commit dfed59ee4b41b0937163dfed36752d29e72d0712
CVE: CVE-2021-26932

--------------------------------

commit a35f2ef3 upstream.

Its sibling (set_foreign_p2m_mapping()) as well as the sibling of its
only caller (gnttab_map_refs()) don't clean up after themselves in case
of error. Higher level callers are expected to do so. However, in order
for that to really clean up any partially set up state, the operation
should not terminate upon encountering an entry in unexpected state. It
is particularly relevant to notice here that set_foreign_p2m_mapping()
would skip setting up a p2m entry if its grant mapping failed, but it
would continue to set up further p2m entries as long as their mappings
succeeded.

Arguably down the road set_foreign_p2m_mapping() may want its page state
related WARN_ON() also converted to an error return.

This is part of XSA-361.
