Use PTR_ERR() on validate failure, like io_uring_mmap().

FWIW, this is not about using PTR_ERR, but about changing the return on
error to -EINVAL, which is what is returned by
io_uring_validate_mmap_request.  The commit message should reflect that,
specially because this is returned to userspace eventually, and might
break some application checks..

get_unmapped_area() returns -ENOMEM when io_uring_validate_mmap_request()
fails, but validation errors are -EINVAL. Propagate that errno to
userspace, like io_uring_mmap() already does.
