Merge tag 'copy-struct-from-user-v5.4-rc4' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull usercopy test fixlets from Christian Brauner: "This contains two improvements for the copy_struct_from_user() tests: - a coding style change to get rid of the ugly "if ((ret |= test()))" pointed out when pulling the original patchset. - avoid a soft lockups when running the usercopy tests on machines with large page sizes by scanning only a 1024 byte region" * tag 'copy-struct-from-user-v5.4-rc4' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: usercopy: Avoid soft lockups in test_check_nonzero_user() lib: test_user_copy: style cleanup
