Earlier implementation had this:

if (!pci_dma_mapping_error(rdev->pdev, dma_addr[i])) {

And then I changed it to check just the dma_addrs[x] (as the
different IOMMUs would provide irregular values), but
this ',' is really weird - no idea how it actually even compiles.

It should have just been:

		if (dma_addrs[nvbe->nr_pages] != 0) {

The same here. Reading
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2087026/effect-of-using-a-comma-instead-of-a-semi-colon-in-c-and-c

says that it actually did the right thing (evaluated the last
thing) - but I am going to remove the pdev part.

Thanks for spotting this!
