I don't really like the 'returns -errno' :) It's actually the return
code of vfio_pin_pages(), and that might include -EINVAL as well.

So, what about mentioning in the function description that
pfn_array_pin() only succeeds if it coult pin all pages, and simply
stating that it returns a negative error value on failure?
