From: Ran Xiaokai <ran.xiaokai at zte.com.cn>

kho_populate() returns without calling early_memunmap() on success
path, this will cause early ioremap virtual address space leak.

Fixes: b50634c5e84a ("kho: cleanup error handling in kho_populate()")

b50634c5e84a ("kho: cleanup error handling in kho_populate()")
has not landed in upstream, so
Cc: <stable at vger.kernel.org> is unnecessary?
