[PATCH v5 16/20] iommu/dma: Check atomic pool allocation result directly

The non-blocking, non-coherent allocation path uses dma_alloc_from_pool(),
which returns the allocated page and fills cpu_addr only on success.

Do not rely on cpu_addr to detect allocation failure in this path. Check
the returned page directly before using it for the IOMMU mapping.

Fixes: 9420139f516d ("dma-pool: fix coherent pool allocations for IOMMU mappings")
