From: Heiko Carstens Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2014 15:18:55 +0000 (+0100) Subject: s390/uaccess: remove copy_from_user_real() X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=823002023da6d9124ed63bc622267c15ab2a7347;p=linux-beck.git s390/uaccess: remove copy_from_user_real() There is no user left, so remove it. It was also potentially broken, since the function didn't clear destination memory if copy_from_user() failed. Which would allow for information leaks.
