vmci: type promotion bug in qp_host_get_user_memory()
The problem is that if get_user_pages_fast() fails and returns a negative error code, it gets type promoted to a high positive value and treated as a success. Fixes: 06164d2b72aa ("VMCI: queue pairs implementation.") Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
