pnv_npu2_init_context wasn't checking the return code from __mmu_notifier_register. If __mmu_notifier_register failed, the npu_context was still assigned to the mm and the caller wasn't given any indication that things went wrong. Later on pnv_npu2_destroy_context would be called, which in turn called mmu_notifier_unregister and dropped mm->mm_count without having incremented it in the first place. This led to various forms of corruption like mm use-after-free and mm double-free.
__mmu_notifier_register can fail with EINTR if a signal is pending, so this case can be frequent. This patch calls opal_npu_destroy_context on the failure paths, and makes sure not to assign mm->context.npu_context until past the failure points.
