Subject: [PATCH] xen/privcmd: fix error exit of privcmd_ioctl_dm_op()

The error exit of privcmd_ioctl_dm_op() is calling unlock_pages()
potentially with pages being NULL, leading to a NULL dereference.

Fix that by calling unlock_pages only if lock_pages() was at least
partially successful.

Looking into this I found another problem: NOT using pinned is wrong, as
lock_pages() doesn't guarantee that all pages were really locked. I think
lock_pages() should return an error, in case pin_user_pages_fast() didn't
lock as many pages es expected.
