Good find.  The change looks correct to me.  For the benefit of stable
backports, let's venture towards being overly verbose in the subject and
commit log.  My suggestion would be:

    vfio/type1: Fix error unwind in migration dirty bitmap allocation

    When setting up dirty page tracking at the vfio IOMMU backend for
    device migration, if an error is encountered allocating a tracking
    bitmap, the unwind loop fails to free previously allocated tracking
    bitmaps.  This occurs because the wrong loop index is used to
    generate the tracking object.  This results in unintended memory
    usage for the life of the current DMA mappings where bitmaps were
    successfully allocated.

    Use the correct loop index to derive the tracking object for
    freeing during unwind.

This gives us some context relative to when we might encounter this
issue (pretty rare) and the scope of the issue (bound to the lifetime
of the vfio_dma object).  If you approve I can incorporate this to v1
or feel free to send a v2 with these updates.  Thanks,

Alex
