Chaitanya Kulkarni 81e7223b1a block: fix partial IOVA mapping cleanup in blk_rq_dma_map_iova
When dma_iova_link() fails partway through mapping a request's bvec
list, the function breaks out of the loop without cleaning up
already mapped segments. Similarly, if dma_iova_sync() fails after
linking all segments, no cleanup is performed.

This leaves partial IOVA mappings in place. The completion path
attempts to unmap the full expected size via dma_iova_destroy() or
nvme_unmap_data(), but only a partial size was actually mapped,
leading to incorrect unmap operations.

Add an out_unlink error path that calls dma_iova_destroy() to clean
up partial mappings before returning failure. The dma_iova_destroy()
function handles both partial unlink and IOVA space freeing. It
correctly handles the mapped_len == 0 case (first dma_iova_link()
failure) by only freeing the IOVA allocation without attempting to
unmap.
