Well, the question is the handling of ENODATA. Whether the function
returns 0 or -ENODATA depends on page flag. If page flag is true,
-ENODATA is cleared. My question was whether this behavior is
intended or not.

If -ENODATA should be returned whenever it gets that from
do_transfer(), the code has a potential bug there.
