[stable] [PATCH] devmem: check vmalloc address on kmem read/write

From: Wu Fengguang
Date: Wed Feb 03 2010 - 21:42:16 EST


From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 325fda71d0badc1073dc59f12a948f24ff05796a upstream.

Otherwise vmalloc_to_page() will BUG().

This also makes the kmem read/write implementation aligned with mem(4):
"References to nonexistent locations cause errors to be returned." Here
we return -ENXIO (inspired by Hugh) if no bytes have been transfered
to/from user space, otherwise return partial read/write results.
