mshv: Fix use-after-free in mshv_map_user_memory error path

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mshv: Fix use-after-free in mshv_map_user_memory error path

In the error path of mshv_map_user_memory(), calling vfree() directly on
the region leaves the MMU notifier registered. When userspace later unmaps
the memory, the notifier fires and accesses the freed region, causing a
use-after-free and potential kernel panic.

Replace vfree() with mshv_partition_put() to properly unregister
the MMU notifier before freeing the region.

CWE-416 Use After Free

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
