Before any thread is allowed to use a gmap_shadow, it has to be fully initialized. However, for invalidation to work properly, we have to register the new gmap_shadow before we protect the parent gmap table. Because locking is tricky, and we have to avoid duplicate gmaps, let's introduce an initialized field, that signalizes other threads if that gmap_shadow can already be used or if they have to retry. Let's properly return errors using ERR_PTR() instead of simply returning NULL, so a caller can properly react on the error.
