[PATCH net] net: Make copy_safe_from_sockptr() match documentation

[Michal Luczaj]

copy_safe_from_sockptr()
  return copy_from_sockptr()
    return copy_from_sockptr_offset()
      return copy_from_user()

copy_from_user() does not return an error on fault. Instead, it returns a
number of bytes that were not copied. Have it handled.

Fixes: 6309863b31dd ("net: add copy_safe_from_sockptr() helper")
Signed-off-by: Michal Luczaj <mhal@rbox.co>

Patch has a side effect: it un-breaks garbage input handling of
nfc_llcp_setsockopt() and mISDN's data_sock_setsockopt().

I'll move this to the commit message, it's important.

Are you planning to scan callers of copy_from_sockptr() ?
I looked at 3 callers who save the return value, 2 of them are buggy :S

Sure, I took a look:

Have I missed anything?

Thanks,

Looks like you covered the two I spotted - rxrpc and llc, thanks!
