Subject: [PATCHv3 0/9] vme_user checkpatch fixes and read()/write() rework

First four patches are fixes for various checpatch warnings.  Next there is a
change to drop large read()/write() stub followed by a change to rework user
copy error codes.  Last three changes are refactorings.

v2 fixes  ("vme_user: return -EFAULT on __copy_*_user errors") that had EINVAL
instead of EFAULT in a couple of places.

v3 fixes ("allow large read()/write()") to also remove the comment right above
resource_to_user()
v3 also renames ("vme_user: return -EFAULT on __copy_*_user errors") to
("switch to returning -EFAULT on __copy_*_user errors")

Dmitry Kalinkin (9):
  staging: vme_user: fix code alignment
  staging: vme_user: fix blank lines
  staging: vme_user: fix NULL comparison style
  staging: vme_user: fix kmalloc style
  staging: vme_user: allow large read()/write()
  staging: vme_user: switch to returning -EFAULT on __copy_*_user errors
  staging: vme_user: remove unused variable
