virtio_ring: fix return code on DMA mapping fails
[ Upstream commit f7728002c1c7bfa787b276a31c3ef458739b8e7c ] Commit 780bc7903a32 ("virtio_ring: Support DMA APIs") makes virtqueue_add() return -EIO when we fail to map our I/O buffers. This is a very realistic scenario for guests with encrypted memory, as swiotlb may run out of space, depending on it's size and the I/O load. The virtio-blk driver interprets -EIO form virtqueue_add() as an IO error, despite the fact that swiotlb full is in absence of bugs a recoverable condition. Let us change the return code to -ENOMEM, and make the block layer recover form these failures when virtio-blk encounters the condition described above.
