[PATCH 01/24] fix default __strnlen_user macro

From: Mark Salter
Date: Wed Aug 31 2011 - 17:34:04 EST


The existing __strnlen_user macro simply resolved to strnlen. However, the
count returned by strnlen_user should include the NULL byte. This patch
fixes the __strnlen_user macro to include the NULL byte in the count.
