Subject: [PATCH] openrisc: fix the fix of copy_from_user()
Date: Sat, 17 Sep 2016 13:01:32 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1474142492-3667-1-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> (raw)

Since commit acb2505d0119 ("openrisc: fix copy_from_user()"),
copy_from_user() returns the number of bytes requested, not the
number of bytes not copied.
