dma-mapping: return an error code from dma_mapping_error
Currently dma_mapping_error returns a boolean as int, with 1 meaning error. This is rather unusual and many callers have to convert it to errno value. The callers are highly inconsistent with error codes ranging from -ENOMEM over -EIO, -EINVAL and -EFAULT ranging to -EAGAIN. Return -ENOMEM which seems to be what the largest number of callers convert it to, and which also matches the typical error case where we are out of resources.
