I wonder what kind of lazy coder leaves this kind of garbage
behind for others to fix up...

d7c51b47ac11e (Linus Walleij           2016-04-26 10:35:29 +0200  451)
 } else if (cmd == GPIOHANDLE_SET_LINE_VALUES_IOCTL) {
d7c51b47ac11e (Linus Walleij           2016-04-26 10:35:29 +0200  452)
         /* TODO: check if descriptors are really output */
d7c51b47ac11e (Linus Walleij           2016-04-26 10:35:29 +0200  453)
         if (copy_from_user(&ghd, ip, sizeof(ghd)))

Oh that guy.
