Subject: arm/arm64: KVM: Fix ioctl error handling
From: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
commit 4cad67fca3fc952d6f2ed9e799621f07666a560f upstream.
Calling return copy_to_user(...) in an ioctl will not
do the right thing if there's a pagefault:
copy_to_user returns the number of bytes not copied
in this case.
Fix up kvm to do
return copy_to_user(...)) ? -EFAULT : 0;
everywhere.
