FromColin King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Subject[PATCH] ARC: return -EFAULT on failed access_ok for arc_usr_cmpxchg syscall
Message-ID<svKZj-6tF-3@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

arc_usr_cmpxchg currently returns an uninitialized value in ret
on a failed access_ok call. Instead, return -EFAULT.

Thx for spotting this. Since this is new code, not yet merged, do you mind if I
