copy_safe_from_sockptr()
return copy_from_sockptr()
return copy_from_sockptr_offset()
return copy_from_user()
copy_from_user() does not return an error on fault. Instead, it returns a
number of bytes that were not copied. Have it handled.
Patch has a side effect: it un-breaks garbage input handling of
nfc_llcp_setsockopt() and mISDN's data_sock_setsockopt().
Fixes: 6309863b31 ("net: add copy_safe_from_sockptr() helper")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
