Subject: [PATCH] next: drm/atomic: Use copy_from_user to copy 64 bit data from user space
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2015 21:12:17 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1421125937-27394-1-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> (raw)

Copying 64 bit data from user space using get_user is not supported
on all architectures, and may result in the following build error.

ERROR: "__get_user_bad" [drivers/gpu/drm/drm.ko] undefined!

Avoid the problem by using copy_from_user.

Fixes: d34f20d6e2f2 ("drm: Atomic modeset ioctl")
