Why is this within the ret > 0 block ? I would write

	if (likely(ret == size))
		return 0;

	if (ret > 0) {

What's a "control package" ?

I think you meants "than expected", not "that expected".

Do we want to apply this workaround to GET_INFO and GET_LEN, or can we
restrict it to GET_CUR, GET_MIN, GET_MAX and GET_RES ?
