Subject: [PATCH 1/3] efi/efi_test: use memdup_user() as a cleanup
Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2016 11:14:49 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1474859691-8574-2-git-send-email-ivan.hu@canonical.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1474859691-8574-1-git-send-email-ivan.hu-Z7WLFzj8eWMS+FvcfC7Uqw@public.gmane.org>

Cleanup the warning,
drivers/firmware/efi/test/efi_test.c:269:8-15: WARNING opportunity for
memdup_user

Use memdup_user rather than duplicating its implementation
This is a little bit restricted to reduce false positives

Generated by: coccinelle/api/memdup_user.coc
