But introduces another one. In that loop, umem->num_pages keeps the
number of pages currently pinned, not the target number. The current
patch uses that umem->num_pages to call vm_unaccount_pinned() in
siw_umem_release(). Bailing out before all pages are pinned would
mess up that accounting during release. Maybe introduce another
parameter to siw_umem_release(), or better have another umem member
'umem->num_pages_accounted' for correct accounting during release.
