Hi,
Seeing this warning :
fs/cifs/cifssmb.c:902: warning: ignoring return value of `copy_from_user', declared with attribute warn_unused_result
lead to the following patch.
The patch adds a check of the copy_from_user return value and returns
-EFAULT if the call fails. In addition to that I did some
formatting/whitespace changes - the code uses primarily tabs for
indentation, but this little bit used spaces, so I changed that to tabs; I
also added a few curly braces {} for a few if statements, in the same
area, that seemed to be becomming quite hard to read without.
Patch has been compile tested, but I have no real way to test it properly
beyond that.
I hope the patch is acceptable and mergable :)
Btw, I'm only subscribed to LKML, so please keep me on CC.
