[PATCH] autofs: sanity check status reported with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_FAIL

From: NeilBrown
Date: Tue Jun 06 2017 - 22:08:57 EST



If a positive status is passed with the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_FAIL
ioctl, autofs4_d_automount() will return
ERR_PTR(status)
with that status to follow_automount(), which will then
dereference an invalid pointer.

So treat a positive status the same as zero, and map
to ENOENT.

See comment in systemd src/core/automount.c::automount_send_ready().
