[patch 25/49] I/OAT: fix dma_pin_iovec_pages() error handling

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Nov 11 2008 - 19:35:52 EST


2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Maciej Sosnowski <maciej.sosnowski@xxxxxxxxx>

commit c2c0b4c5434c0a25f7f7796b29155d53805909f5 upstream

Error handling needs to be modified in dma_pin_iovec_pages().
It should return NULL instead of ERR_PTR
(pinned_list is checked for NULL in tcp_recvmsg() to determine
if iovec pages have been successfully pinned down).
In case of error for the first iovec,
local_list->nr_iovecs needs to be initialized.
