From: Andrii Nakryiko <andriin@xxxxxx> commit 02553b91da5deb63c8562b47529b09b734659af0 upstream. During recent refactorings, bpf_probe_read_kernel_str() started returning 0 on success, instead of amount of data successfully read. This majorly breaks applications relying on bpf_probe_read_kernel_str() and bpf_probe_read_str() and their results. Fix this by returning actual number of bytes read.
