get_vaddr_frames() first calls pin_user_pages_fast() and if that fails tries follow_pfn(). But if that also fails, then the error code from pin_user_pages_fast() is overwritten with the error code from follow_pfn(). Specifically if pin_user_pages_fast() returns -ENOMEM, then follow_pfn() will overwrite that with -EINVAL, which is very confusing. So store the error code from pin_user_pages_fast() and return that if follow_pfn() returns -EINVAL. -EINVAL indicates that the page is unsuitable for follow_pfn, so pin_user_pages_fast() was the correct call to make, and that error code should be returned instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
