You're breaking error reporting here and in a bunch of other places.
Should be:

err = pathname_concat();
if (err)
	goto err_unpin_maps;

I have the same attitude towards this patch as the first one in the
series: not worth it. Nothing is currently broken, the code as is relatively
readable, this version is not much simpler, it just looks slightly different
taste-wise..

How about this: if you really want to push this kind of cleanup, send
selftests that exercise all these error cases? :-)
