The copy_to_user() function returns the number of bytes remaining to be
copied, but we want to return -EFAULT if the copy doesn't complete.

... which is done by the only caller.

        if (set_fd_set(n, inp, fds.res_in) ||
            set_fd_set(n, outp, fds.res_out) ||
            set_fd_set(n, exp, fds.res_ex))
                ret = -EFAULT;
