[PATCH v2] dma-mapping: add unlikely hint for error path in dma_mapping_error

From: Heiner Kallweit
Date: Sun Dec 13 2020 - 11:34:03 EST


Zillions of drivers use the unlikely() hint when checking the result of
dma_mapping_error(). This is an inline function anyway, so we can move
the hint into this function and remove it from drivers.

v2:
Split the big patch into the change for dma-mapping.h and follow-up
patches per subsystem that will go through the trees of the respective
maintainers.
