dma-mapping: better document dma_addr_t and DMA_MAPPING_ERROR
Move the comment documenting dma_addr_t away from the dma_map_ops definition which isn't very related to it, and toward DMA_MAPPING_ERROR, which is somewhat related. Add a little blurb about DMA_MAPPING_ERROR as well. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
