don't know if n==0 can happen? property found but not value?

char *, checkpatch error.

why not initializing ret at declaration time?

why do you set *lenp to the length of all strings even if they can't be
copied?

so in that case *lenp is not incremented?

Can't you have a similar implementation as for uxx, see next patch
comments. Can't you copy to user in one shot. Can't that code be simplified.
