[PATCH 3.2 015/115] watchdog: rc32434_wdt: fix ioctl error handling
From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Tue Apr 26 2016 - 20:48:27 EST
3.2.80-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 10e7ac22cdd4d211cef99afcb9371b70cb175be6 upstream.
Calling return copy_to_user(...) in an ioctl will not do the right thing
if there's a pagefault: copy_to_user returns the number of bytes not
copied in this case.
Fix up watchdog/rc32434_wdt to do
return copy_to_user(...)) ? -EFAULT : 0;
instead.
