Subject: [ 36/49] x86-64: Fix the failure case in copy_user_handle_tail()
Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2013 16:01:33 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130326225843.306647599@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130326225839.554028294@linuxfoundation.org>

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: CQ Tang <cq.tang@intel.com>

commit 66db3feb486c01349f767b98ebb10b0c3d2d021b upstream.

The increment of "to" in copy_user_handle_tail() will have incremented
before a failure has been noted.  This causes us to skip a byte in the
failure case.

Only do the increment when assured there is no failure.
