Subject: iommu/amd: Fix incorrect error handling in amd_iommu_bind_pasid()

From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@163.com>

commit 73dbd4a4230216b6a5540a362edceae0c9b4876b upstream.

In function amd_iommu_bind_pasid(), the control flow jumps
to label out_free when pasid_state->mm and mm is NULL. And
mmput(mm) is called.  In function mmput(mm), mm is
referenced without validation. This will result in a NULL
dereference bug. This patch fixes the bug.
