Patch looks correct. vma_map_lookup used to return 0xffffffff on a
failed lookup, but a change was recently made to return the vma physical
address + 0x10000000 (as Roel notes above). There are two callers of
vam_map_lookup: one of them correctly deals with this new return value,
but the other (below) did not. Roel's patch fixes that hole. Thanks!

Arnd, can you put this into the Cell tree for pushing upstream? Thanks.
