[PATCH 2/7] AGPGART: Use memdup_user() rather than duplicating its implementation

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

 



From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue, 13 Sep 2016 21:00:44 +0200

* Reuse existing functionality from memdup_user() instead of keeping
  duplicate source code.

* Try this copy operation before allocating memory for the local
  variable "ksegment".
