[PATCH v2] selftests/input: add test to cover len > maxlen in bits_to_user()

From: Dana Elfassy
Date: Wed Jun 21 2023 - 04:31:26 EST


In order to cover this case, setting 'maxlen = 0', with the following
explanation:
EVIOCGKEY is executed from evdev_do_ioctl(), which is called from
evdev_ioctl_handler().
evdev_ioctl_handler() is called from 2 functions, where by code coverage,
only the first one is in use.
‘compat’ is given the value ‘0’ [1].
Thus, the condition [2] is always false.
This means ‘len’ always equals a positive number [3]
‘maxlen’ in evdev_handle_get_val [4] is defined locally in
evdev_do_ioctl() [5], and is sent in the variable 'size' [6]
