[PATCH] fanotify: remove unneeded sub-zero check for unsigned value

From: Nikita Kiryushin
Date: Thu Mar 14 2024 - 09:47:10 EST



Unsigned size_t len in copy_fid_info_to_user is checked
for negative value. This check is redundant as it is
always false.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
