From a661b77fc12a172edea4b709e37f8cd58a6bd500 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chuck Lever Date: Thu, 20 Dec 2007 14:54:42 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Fix use of copy_to_user() in idmap_pipe_upcall The idmap_pipe_upcall() function expects the copy_to_user() function to return a negative error value if the call fails, but copy_to_user() returns an unsigned long number of bytes that couldn't be copied.
