Dan Carpenter a97a92374a xen/xenbus: fix return type in xenbus_file_read()
commit 32ad11127b upstream.

This code tries to store -EFAULT in an unsigned int.  The
xenbus_file_read() function returns type ssize_t so the negative value
is returned as a positive value to the user.

This change forces another change to the min() macro.  Originally, the
min() macro used "unsigned" type which checkpatch complains about.  Also
unsigned type would break if "len" were not capped at MAX_RW_COUNT.  Use
size_t for the min().  (No effect on runtime for the min_t() change).

Fixes: 2fb3683e7b ("xen: Add xenbus device driver")

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
