The recently-added i915_gem_object_pin_map() can be further optimised
for "small" objects. To facilitate this, and simplify the error paths
before adding the new code, this patch pulls out the "mapping" part of
the operation (involving local allocations which must be undone before
return) into its own subfunction.

The next patch will then insert the new optimisation into the middle of
the now-separated subfunction.

This reorganisation will probably not affect the generated code, as the
compiler will most likely inline it anyway, but it makes the logical
structure a bit clearer and easier to modify.

v2:
     Restructure loop-over-pages & error check (Chris Wilson)

v3:
     Add page count to debug messages (Chris Wilson)
     Convert WARN_ON() to GEM_BUG_ON()

Looks like this does not need to be initialized?

OK. BTW the compiler didn't actually generate any code for this :)

Not terribly important but I think this is too low level functions to
have debug logging. It will not add a lot of useful information, no call
stack etc. And the callers are probably handling failures already and
they would propagate somewhere from where it is already reported.

Same here. I mean, the only potential argument could be that this will
tell the real reason which is otherwise lost in the NULL return code,
but I am not sure it is worth it since it is so unlikely it would happen.

OK, debugging removed, new version posted.

.Dave.

Otherwise looks fine to me.
