[PATCH 2/2] staging: dgrp: dgrp_tty.c: Audit the return values of get/put_user()

From: Kumar Amit Mehta
Date: Thu Nov 22 2012 - 14:47:00 EST


fix for missing audits for return values of get_user() and put_user().
Inspecting the return values of get/put_user() would make the access_ok()
redundant, hence removing calls to access_ok() in such scenarios.
