the correct error is covered by put_old_timex32.
Fixes: f1f1d5ebd10f ("posix-timers: Introduce a syscall for clock tuning.")

Well, the non-negative return code (TIME_OK, TIME_INS, etc) is
clobbered by put_old_timex32().

This is not the correct commit for the "Fixes" tag. Please find the
actual commit that introduced the issue.
In commit f1f1d5ebd10f the code looked like this...
long compat_sys_clock_adjtime(clockid_t which_clock,
struct compat_timex __user *utp)
{
struct timex txc;
mm_segment_t oldfs;
int err, ret;
err = compat_get_timex(&txc, utp);
if (err)
return err;
oldfs = get_fs();
set_fs(KERNEL_DS);
ret = sys_clock_adjtime(which_clock, (struct timex __user *) &txc);
set_fs(oldfs);
err = compat_put_timex(utp, &txc);
if (err)
return err;
return ret;
}
Thanks,
Richard

f1f1d5ebd10:
Introduce compat_sys_clock_adjtime
62a6fa97684:
rename compat_sys_clock_adjtime to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE2(clock_adjtime
3a4d44b6162:
move COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE2(clock_adjtime from kernel/compat.c to
kernel/time/posix-timers.c
8dabe7245bb:
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE2(clock_adjtime, ..
-> SYSCALL_DEFINE2(clock_adjtime32, ..
The implement of clock_adjtime32 is similar to compat_sys_clock_adjtime.
And I think f1f1d5ebd10 introduced the problem actually.

Look at the code ^^^

See how 'ret' and 'err' are two separate variables? It makes a difference.
Thanks,

Oh, yee.. Very thanks.
3a4d44b616 ("ntp: Move adjtimex related compat syscalls to native
counterparts") made the change.
