Subject: [122/129] i915_gem: return -EFAULT if copy_to_user fails

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <error27@...il.com>

commit c877cdce93a44eea96f6cf7fc04be7d0372db2be upstream.

copy_to_user() returns the number of bytes remaining to be copied and
I'm pretty sure we want to return a negative error code here.
