Subject: [PATCH] kfifo: fix kfifo_to_user() return type
stable inclusion
from stable-v4.19.256
commit 2cff35bb4573cbdbf1e0a405539dc9680004abe8
category: bugfix
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5Q0SQ
CVE: NA
--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit 045ed31e23aea840648c290dbde04797064960db ]
The kfifo_to_user() macro is supposed to return zero for success or
negative error codes. Unfortunately, there is a signedness bug so it
returns unsigned int. This only affects callers which try to save the
result in ssize_t and as far as I can see the only place which does that
is line6_hwdep_read().
TL;DR: s/_uint/_int/.
