Thanks for looking at this. I'm in two minds about this; the existing
logic is such that these put_users can only fail if something else has
already failed and its returning an error. I guess it would be useful
to get an EFAULT if you've got a problem writing back the results.
IanC, any opinion?
Thanks,
