In case of error of get_user_pages(), it will return -errno, 0 and 3rd one is
(rv > 0 && rv != acd->page_count). When rv is -errno or 0 there is no need
to call put_pages() in error path. But for 3rd case partially mapped pages
need to unpin.

Correct me if I am missing anything.

Yes, I agree, but these are intermediate steps. Patch [4/4] of this series
finally did the same.
