[PATCH] x86-64: fix too early pointer increment

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

 



From: CQ Tang <cq.tang@xxxxxxxxx>

The increment of "to" in copy_user_handle_tail() will
have incremented before a failure has been noted.

Only do the increment when assured there is no failure.
