From e44ab1f715d6610e40ce1a07ff060aa3df4ac00d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2009 15:51:16 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: fix problems with binary files commit 4503efd0891c40e30928afb4b23dc3f99c62a6b2 upstream. Some sysfs binary files don't like having 0 passed to them as a size. Fix this up at the root by just returning to the vfs if userspace asks us for a zero sized buffer. Thanks to Pavel Roskin for pointing this out.
