The error paths of gntdev_mmap() can call unmap_grant_pages() even
though not all of the pages have been successfully mapped. This will
trigger the WARN_ON()s in __unmap_grant_pages_done(). The number of
warnings can be very large; I have observed thousands of lines of
warnings in the systemd journal.

Avoid this problem by only warning on unmapping failure if the handle
being unmapped is not INVALID_GRANT_HANDLE. The handle field of any
page that was not successfully mapped will be INVALID_GRANT_HANDLE, so
this catches all cases where unmapping can legitimately fail.
