[PATCH 4.9 27/28] xprtrdma: Return -ENOBUFS when no pages are available

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit a8f688ec437dc2045cc8f0c89fe877d5803850da upstream.

The use of -EAGAIN in rpcrdma_convert_iovs() is a latent bug: the
transport never calls xprt_write_space() when more pages become
available. -ENOBUFS will trigger the correct "delay briefly and call
again" logic.
