While this change keeps the similar effect as before it leads to different
policy for same type of errors between pin and unpin paths:

e.g.

vfio_unpin_pages():
	if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!user_pfn || !npage || !vfio_assert_device_open(device)))
		return;

vfio_pin_pages():
	if (!user_pfn || !phys_pfn || !npage ||
	    !vfio_assert_device_open(device))
		return -EINVAL;

It sounds a bit weird when reading related code...
