Commit d3eeb1d77c5d0af ("xen/gntdev: use mmu_interval_notifier_insert")
introduced an error in gntdev_mmap(): in case the call of
mmu_interval_notifier_insert_locked() fails the exit path should not
call mmu_interval_notifier_remove(), as this might result in NULL
dereferences.

One reason for failure is e.g. a signal pending for the running
process.
