[PATCH] octeontx2: Fix otx2_dma_map_page() error return code

Also in: lkml, stable
Subsystem: marvell octeontx2 physical function driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Sunil Goutham, Geetha sowjanya, Ratheesh Kannoth, Subbaraya Sundeep, Bharat Bhushan, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Landed in mainline as d998b0e5afff on 2026-01-17.

0 is a valid DMA address [1] so using it as the error value can lead to
errors.  The error value of dma_map_XXX() functions is DMA_MAPPING_ERROR
which is ~0.  The callers of otx2_dma_map_page() use dma_mapping_error()
to test the return value of otx2_dma_map_page(). This means that they
would not detect an error in otx2_dma_map_page().

Make otx2_dma_map_page() return the raw value of dma_map_page_attrs().
