When fail, translate_desc() returns negative value, otherwise the
number of iovs. So we should fail when the return value is negative
instead of a blindly check against zero.

Looks good. It is best to put the Addresses-Coverity-Id tag on these kind
of bug fixes so that the automated tools see it.

this backported too.
