It's necessary to free the allocated p2pmem when the mapping is torn down.

If someone wants to manage their own P2P memory and create their own
userspace mapping with vmf_insert_mixed they are free to do so. But this
helper is specifically for users of pci_p2pdma_map_alloc(). I know you
don't intend to use that but it doesn't make it any less valid.
