This is what I mean:
err = -EFAULT; // from previous error
if (copy_to_user(&uattr->batch.count, &cp, sizeof(cp)))
err = -EFAULT;
return err;
User space will not trust uattr->batch.count even copy_to_user()
is successful since -EFAULT is returned.

There are two ways to address this issue if previous error is -EFAULT,
1. do not copy_to_user() and return -EFAULT, which is I suggested
in the above.
2. go ahead to do copy_to_user() and if it is successful, change
return value to something different from -EFAULT to indicate
that uattr->batch.count is valid.

I feel it is important to return actual error code -EFAULT to
user so user knows some fault happens. Returning other error code
may be misleading during debugging.

I missed this. Thanks for explanation!
