Subject: [PATCH] drm/nouveau/core/object: Fix the uninitialized use of "type"

In function nvkm_ioctl_map(), the variable "type" could be
uninitialized if "nvkm_object_map()" returns error code, however,
it does not check the return value and directly use the "type" in
the if statement, which is potentially unsafe.
