asm-generic: make copy_from_user() zero the destination properly
commit 2545e5da080b4839dd859e3b09343a884f6ab0e3 upstream. ... in all cases, including the failing access_ok() Note that some architectures using asm-generic/uaccess.h have __copy_from_user() not zeroing the tail on failure halfway through. This variant works either way. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>
