3.8.13.22 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Yann Droneaud <ydroneaud at opteya.com>
commit 5bdb0f02add5994b0bc17494f4726925ca5d6ba1 upstream.
In case of error when writing to userspace, function ehca_create_cq()
does not set an error code before following its error path.
This patch sets the error code to -EFAULT when ib_copy_to_udata()
fails.
This was caught when using spatch (aka. coccinelle)
to rewrite call to ib_copy_{from,to}_udata().
