Subject: [PATCH] iov_iter: Fix 9p virtio breakage
Date: Fri,  2 Nov 2018 17:16:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181102171651.97671-1-marc.zyngier@arm.com> (raw)

When switching to the new iovec accessors, a negation got subtly
dropped, leading to 9p being remarkably broken (here with kvmtool):

Restoring the missing "!" brings the guest back to life.
