Subject: vfio: fix ioctl error handling
commit 8160c4e455820d5008a1116d2dca35f0363bb062 upstream.
Calling return copy_to_user(...) in an ioctl will not
do the right thing if there's a pagefault:
copy_to_user returns the number of bytes not copied
in this case.
Fix up vfio to do
return copy_to_user(...)) ?
-EFAULT : 0;
everywhere.
