From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b88d28146c30a8e14f0f012d56ebf19b68a348f4 ] If the copy_from_user() fails or the user gives invalid date then the correct thing to do is to return a negative error code. (Currently it returns success). I made a copy additional related cleanups: 1) There is no need to check "buffer" for NULL. That's handled by copy_from_user(). 2) The "h2c_len" variable cannot be negative because it is unsigned and because sscanf() does not return negative error codes.
