4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Hailong Liu <liu.hailong6@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit e7de2590f18a272e63732b9d519250d1b522b2c4 upstream.
uio_mmap has multiple fail paths to set return value to nonzero then
goto out. However, it always returns *0* from the *out* at end, and
this will mislead callers who check the return value of this function.
Fixes: 57c5f4df0a5a0ee ("uio: fix crash after the device is unregistered")
