[PATCH 1/2] dmaengine: ioat: set error code on failures

[Pan Bian]

In function ioat_dma_self_test(), when the calls to dma_mapping_error() 
fails, the value of return variable err is 0 (indicates no error). As a 
result, the return value may be inconsistent with the execution status. 
This patch fixes the bug by assigning -ENOMEM to err on the error path.

This was v2 of the series so you should tag it as PATCH v2. You can do so
with --subject-prefix in git format-patch command.

Applied both now with Dave's Acks
