I also see:

  arch/powerpc/kernel/dma.c:const struct dma_map_ops dma_direct_ops = {

Which you mentioned can't fail.

  arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/ibmebus.c:static const struct dma_map_ops ibmebus_dma_ops = {

Which can't fail.

And:

  arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/npu-dma.c:static const struct dma_map_ops dma_npu_ops = {
  arch/powerpc/platforms/ps3/system-bus.c:static const struct dma_map_ops ps3_sb_dma_ops = {
  arch/powerpc/platforms/ps3/system-bus.c:static const struct dma_map_ops ps3_ioc0_dma_ops = {

All of which look like they definitely can fail, but return 0 on error
and don't implement ->mapping_error.

So I guess I'm acking this and adding a TODO to fix up the NPU code at
least, the ps3 code is probably better left alone these days.
