mm/gup.c: allow CMA migration to propagate errors back to caller
check_and_migrate_cma_pages() was recording the result of __get_user_pages_locked() in an unsigned "nr_pages" variable. Because __get_user_pages_locked() returns a signed value that can include negative errno values, this had the effect of hiding errors. Change check_and_migrate_cma_pages() implementation so that it uses a signed variable instead, and propagates the results back to the caller just as other gup internal functions do. This was discovered with the help of unsigned_lesser_than_zero.cocci.
