Oh, that's definitely not needed - as long as we know we're going to quit,
we let kernel clean everything is fine.
I just worry in the future there can be a loop of userfaultfd_stress() so
it can OOM a host even if no err() hit but by looping. I hope I explained
what I meant.. so it's still good we make sure things freed properly when
in success paths and when we're at it.

That'll be good enough to me. Thanks a lot,
