So the above should be: source[len - 1] Details aside. memdup_user_nul() which is called gurantee that the buffer is null terminated. The buffer allocated is len + 1 and the last byte in the buffer is set to '\0' in memdup_user_nul(). So the right fix is to kill the two lines since they have no effect. Could you please verify my analysis, and if you agree submit a new patch.
