I made the original suggestion to return -EAGAIN here. A
DMA mapping failure should occur only if swiotlb bounce
buffer space is unavailable, which is a transient condition.
The existing code already stops the queue and returns
-EAGAIN when the ring buffer is full, which is also a transient
condition. My sense is that the two conditions should be
handled the same way. Or is there a reason why a ring
buffer full condition should stop the queue and retry, while
a mapping failure should drop the packet?
