[patch] x86: xsave: cleanup return codes in check_for_xstate()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The places which call check_for_xstate() only care about zero or
non-zero so this patch doesn't change how the code runs, but it's a 
cleanup.  The main reason for this patch is that I'm looking for places
which don't return -EFAULT for copy_from_user() failures.
