  Function returns 0 in case copy_from_user() was not able to copy
return address entirely, and "if (ncopied)" makes sure of it. We 
can't continue if we have no correct return address.

  copy_from_user() returns number of bytes that were *not* copied,
thus "ncopied == rasize" means copy_from_user() was not able to copy
*all* bytes. I don't see the point of such check here.

  Or am I missing anything?

thank you!
Anton.
