[v2] mm/hmm/test: use after free in dmirror_allocate_chunk()

Commit Message

The error handling code does this:

err_free:
	kfree(devmem);
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
err_release:
	release_mem_region(devmem->pagemap.range.start, range_len(&devmem->pagemap.range));
                           ^^^^^^^^
The problem is that when we use "devmem->pagemap.range.start" the
"devmem" pointer is either NULL or freed.

Neither the allocation nor the call to request_free_mem_region() has to
be done under the lock so I moved those to the start of the function.
