From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> If userspace calls this ioctl with fsu_length (the length of the fsuuid.fsu_uuid array) set to zero, ext4 copies the desired uuid length out to userspace. The kernel call returned a result from a valid input, so the return value here should be zero, not EINVAL. While we're at it, fix the copy_to_user call to make it clear that we're only copying out fsu_len. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
