binfmt_elf_fdpic: Fix clear_user() error handling
clear_user() returns the number of bytes that could not be copied rather than an error code. So we should return -EFAULT rather than directly returning the results. Without this patch, positive values may be returned to elf_fdpic_map_file() and the following error handlings do not function as expected. 1. ret = elf_fdpic_map_file_constdisp_on_uclinux(params, file, mm); if (ret < 0) return ret; 2. ret = elf_fdpic_map_file_by_direct_mmap(params, file, mm); if (ret < 0) return ret; Signed-off-by: Takuya Yoshikawa <yoshikawa.takuya@oss.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> CC: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> CC: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> CC: Daisuke HATAYAMA <d.hatayama@jp.fujitsu.com> CC: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
