During the error path, the vma iterator may not be correctly positioned or set to the correct range. Undo the vma_prev() call by resetting to the passed in address. Re-walking to the same range will fix the range to the area previously passed in.
Users would notice increased cycles as vma_merge() would be called an extra time with vma == prev, and thus would fail to merge and return.
