[PATCH 15/20] iommu/vt-d: Fix copied_tables bitmap leak on error in copy_translation_tables

The iommu->copied_tables bitmap was introduced by the IOMMU live
update series to track which context entries have been copied from
the previous kernel.  The allocation via bitmap_zalloc() was added
inside copy_translation_tables(), but the error paths were not
updated to free it:

  1. When old_rt_phys is 0 (invalid root table address)
  2. When memremap(old_rt_phys) fails
  3. When kcalloc for ctxt_tbls fails (goto out_unmap, which only
     unmaps old_rt without releasing the bitmap)

The bitmap is only cleaned up by free_dmar_iommu(), which is
called from the free_iommu error label in init_dmars().  However,
when copy_translation_tables() fails, init_dmars() does not jump
to free_iommu -- it logs the error, falls through, and continues
with the next IOMMU.  As a result, copied_tables is leaked.

Fix this by converting the two early returns to goto a new
err_free_bitmap label, and by making out_unmap fall through to
it so that the bitmap is always freed on any error path.  The
success path performs memunmap(old_rt) inline and returns 0
directly, since copied_tables must remain allocated for
subsequent use.
