[PATCH 07/11] x86, pageattr: Add a PUD error unwinding path

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Thu Oct 31 2013 - 12:27:06 EST


From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

In case we encounter an error during the mapping of a region, we want to
unwind what we've established so far exactly the way we did the mapping.
This is the PUD part kept deliberately small for easier review.
