How about:

rio_dma_transfer() attempts to clamp the return value of
pin_user_pages_fast() to be >= 0. However, the attempt fails because
nr_pages is overridden a few lines later, and restored to the
undesirable -ERRNO value.

The return value is ultimately stored in nr_pages, which in turn is
passed to unpin_user_pages(), which expects nr_pages >= 0, else,
disaster.

Fix this by fixing the nesting of the assignment to nr_pages: nr_pages
should be clamped to zero if pin_user_pages_fast() returns -ERRNO, or
set to the return value of pin_user_pages_fast(), otherwise.
