wait_noreap_copyout(): check for ->wo_info != NULL
Current behaviour of sys_waitid() looks odd. If user passes infop ==
NULL, sys_waitid() returns success. When user additionally specifies flag
WNOWAIT, sys_waitid() returns -EFAULT on the same conditions. When user
combines WNOWAIT with WCONTINUED, sys_waitid() again returns success.
This patch adds check for ->wo_info in wait_noreap_copyout().
User-visible change: starting from this commit, sys_waitid() always checks
infop != NULL and does not fail if it is NULL.
