In __copy_tofrom_user, if we encounter an exception on a store, we stop copying and return the number of bytes not copied. However, if the store is wider than one byte and is to an unaligned address, it is possible that the store operand overlaps a page boundary and the exception occurred on the latter part of the store operand, meaning that it would be possible to copy a few more bytes. Since copy_to_user is generally expected to copy as much as possible, it would be better to copy those extra few bytes. This adds code to do that. Since this edge case is not performance-critical, the code has been written to be compact rather than as fast as possible.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
