Turns this into a negative error code while we're at it, just to keep
the callers sane?
Right, by this point returning the 0 would pass through dma_map_sg_attrs() OK, but AFAICS dma_map_sgtable() would now get confused and return success but with sgt->nents = 0. Coercing it to an error code (which dma_map_sg_attrs() would then just change right back) seems sensible for the sake of easy robustness.
