Subject: [PATCH 1/7] aacraid: Use memdup_user() rather than duplicating its implementation
Date: Sun, 21 Aug 2016 09:19:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <23c56a66-74a6-6033-f209-ac3e4ba83e61@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <40d8607f-3934-c31f-3791-ef6a67d65d45@users.sourceforge.net>

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>
Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2016 20:05:24 +0200

Reuse existing functionality from memdup_user() instead of keeping
duplicate source code.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
