[v2,6/9] vfio: Remove reports of DMA mapping errors in backends

Commit Message

Cédric Le Goater Jan. 30, 2025, 1:43 p.m. UTC

Currently, the IOMMU backend, VFIO IOMMU Type 1 aka. legacy and
IOMMUFD, mapping handlers return an errno and also report an error.
This can produce a lot of output at runtime for recurring DMA mapping
errors and is redundant with the errors reported by the callers in
vfio_container_dma_un/map() routines.

Simply remove to let the callers handle the error. The mapping handler
of the IOMMUFD backend has a comment suggesting MMIO region mapping
failures return EFAULT. I am not sure this is entirely true, so keep
the EFAULT case until the conditions are clarified.
