The ib_sg_to_pages() function can return negative error codes.  The
problem with the error handling is that mem->dma_nents is a u32 so
the comparison is type promoted to unsigned int.  A negative error code
thus becomes a large positive value and is treated as valid.

Was the "unlikely" removed in purpose ?

I'm ok with that since Sagi has patches that will remove FMR usage in iSER.

but the below fix is the correct one for future code as well (ib_dma_map_sg returns int and not unsigned int):
