Maciej Sosnowski c2c0b4c543 [2/4] I/OAT: fix dma_pin_iovec_pages() error handling
Error handling needs to be modified in dma_pin_iovec_pages().
It should return NULL instead of ERR_PTR
(pinned_list is checked for NULL in tcp_recvmsg() to determine
if iovec pages have been successfully pinned down).
In case of error for the first iovec,
local_list->nr_iovecs needs to be initialized.

Shannon Nelson 342ff7b24f [NET_DMA]: remove unused dma_memcpy_to_kernel_iovec
Al Viro pointed out that dma_memcpy_to_kernel_iovec() really was
unreachable and thus unused.  The code originally was there to support
in-kernel dma needs, but since it remains unused, we'll pull it out.
