mm/vma: fix memory leak in __mmap_region()

commit 605f6586ecf7 ("mm/vma: do not leak memory when .mmap_prepare
swaps the file") handled the success path by skipping get_file() via
file_doesnt_need_get, but missed the error path.

When /dev/zero is mmap'd with MAP_SHARED, mmap_zero_prepare() calls
shmem_zero_setup_desc() which allocates a new shmem file to back the
mapping. If __mmap_new_vma() subsequently fails, this replacement
file is never fput()'d - the original is released by
ksys_mmap_pgoff(), but nobody releases the new one.

Add fput() for the swapped file in the error path.

Reproducible with fault injection.
