Actually the error handling looks weird, we can just use normal unwinding
here with an extra call to usb_free_coherent.  Also -EAGAIN is a strange
error to return in this case, as it is simply incorrect.  I think passing
through the errors from dma_mmap_coherent and remap_pfn_range would make
a lot more sense.

Last but not least I wonder if this is the right place to open code
the localmem and has_dma checks - from a layering POV it should be
a usb_mmap_coherent helper at the same level as usb_alloc_coherent.
