From 66db3feb486c01349f767b98ebb10b0c3d2d021b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: CQ Tang Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2013 11:02:21 -0400 Subject: x86-64: Fix the failure case in copy_user_handle_tail() The increment of "to" in copy_user_handle_tail() will have incremented before a failure has been noted. This causes us to skip a byte in the failure case. Only do the increment when assured there is no failure.
