In do_vmi_align_munmap() you have:

	error = vms_gather_munmap_vmas(&vms, &mas_detach);
	if (error)
		goto gather_failed;

	...

gather_failed:
	validate_mm(mm);
	return error;

Right, but in do_vmi_align_munmap() you have:

	error = vma_iter_clear_gfp(vmi, start, end, GFP_KERNEL);
	if (error)
		goto clear_tree_failed;

	...

clear_tree_failed:
	abort_munmap_vmas(&mas_detach);
gather_failed:
	validate_mm(mm);

Yeah, I saw :)
