When a guest performs an atomic/exclusive operation on memory lacking
the required attributes, user_mem_abort() injects a data abort and
returns early. However, it fails to release the reference to the
host page acquired via __kvm_faultin_pfn().
A malicious guest could repeatedly trigger this fault, leaking host
page references and eventually causing host memory exhaustion (OOM).
Fix this by consolidating the early error returns to a new out_put_page
label that correctly calls kvm_release_page_unused().
