If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Yann Droneaud commit 5bdb0f02add5994b0bc17494f4726925ca5d6ba1 upstream. In case of error when writing to userspace, function ehca_create_cq() does not set an error code before following its error path. This patch sets the error code to -EFAULT when ib_copy_to_udata() fails. This was caught when using spatch (aka. coccinelle) to rewrite call to ib_copy_{from,to}_udata().
