4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@xxxxxxxxx> commit d83a8243aaefe62ace433e4384a4f077bed86acb upstream. Some ioctls need to copy back the result even if the ioctl returned an error. However, don't do this for the error code -ENOTTY. It makes no sense in that cases.
