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.

... that should zero on faults.  Also remove the &lt;censored&gt; helpful
logics wrt range truncation copied from ppc32.  Where it had ever
been needed only in case of copy_from_user() *and* had not been merged

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
 "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing -&gt;d_name/-&gt;d_parent
  locking violations, etc.

  The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
  "has -&gt;d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
  to inode.  Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

  Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
  several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

  PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (46 commits)
  saner proc_get_inode() calling conventions
  proc: avoid extra pde_put() in proc_fill_super()
  fs: change return values from -EACCES to -EPERM
  fs/exec.c: make bprm_mm_init() static
  ocfs2/dlm: use GFP_ATOMIC inside a spin_lock
  ocfs2: fix possible use-after-free with AIO
  ocfs2: Fix oops in ocfs2_fast_symlink_readpage() code path
  get_empty_filp()/alloc_file() leave both -&gt;f_pos and -&gt;f_version zero
  target: writev() on single-element vector is pointless
  export kernel_write(), convert open-coded instances
  fs: encode_fh: return FILEID_INVALID if invalid fid_type
  kill f_vfsmnt
  vfs: kill FS_REVAL_DOT by adding a d_weak_revalidate dentry op
  nfsd: handle vfs_getattr errors in acl protocol
  switch vfs_getattr() to struct path
  default SET_PERSONALITY() in linux/elf.h
  ceph: prepopulate inodes only when request is aborted
  d_hash_and_lookup(): export, switch open-coded instances
  9p: switch v9fs_set_create_acl() to inode+fid, do it before d_instantiate()
  9p: split dropping the acls from v9fs_set_create_acl()
