The patch titled
Subject: rapidio: fix error handling path
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
rapidio-fix-error-handling-path.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Souptick Joarder <jrdr.linux@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: rapidio: fix error handling path
rio_dma_transfer() attempts to clamp the return value of
pin_user_pages_fast() to be >= 0. However, the attempt fails because
nr_pages is overridden a few lines later, and restored to the undesirable
-ERRNO value.
The return value is ultimately stored in nr_pages, which in turn is passed
to unpin_user_pages(), which expects nr_pages >= 0, else, disaster.
Fix this by fixing the nesting of the assignment to nr_pages: nr_pages
should be clamped to zero if pin_user_pages_fast() returns -ERRNO, or set
to the return value of pin_user_pages_fast(), otherwise.
