commit 8e4b72054f554967827e18be1de0e8122e6efc04 upstream.

Since commit acb2505d0119 ("openrisc: fix copy_from_user()"),
copy_from_user() returns the number of bytes requested, not the
number of bytes not copied.

Add braces to avoid "ambiguous ‘else’" compiler warnings

commit 194dc870a5890e855ecffb30f3b80ba7c88f96d6 upstream.

Some of our "for_each_xyz()" macro constructs make gcc unhappy about
lack of braces around if-statements inside or outside the loop, because
the loop construct itself has a "if-then-else" statement inside of it.

The resulting warnings look something like this:

  drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_debugfs.c: In function ‘i915_dump_lrc’:
  drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_debugfs.c:2103:6: warning: suggest explicit braces to avoid ambiguous ‘else’ [-Wparentheses]
     if (ctx != dev_priv->kernel_context)
        ^

even if the code itself is fine.

Since the warning is fairly easy to avoid by adding a braces around the
if-statement near the for_each_xyz() construct, do so, rather than
disabling the otherwise potentially useful warning.

(The if-then-else statements used in the "for_each_xyz()" constructs are
designed to be inherently safe even with no braces, but in this case
it's quite understandable that gcc isn't really able to tell that).

This finally leaves the standard "allmodconfig" build with just a
handful of remaining warnings, so new and valid warnings hopefully will
stand out.
