media: hdpvr: fix error value returns in hdpvr_read
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.137 commit bb480bffc1fd439f12635302957ed932bb1a5e9f category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I60PLB Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=bb480bffc1fd439f12635302957ed932bb1a5e9f -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 359c27c6 ] Error return values are supposed to be negative in hdpvr_read. Most error returns are currently handled via an unsigned integer "ret". When setting a negative error value to "ret", the value actually becomes a large positive value, because "ret" is unsigned. Later on, the "ret" value is returned. But as ssize_t is a 64-bit signed number, the error return value stays a large positive integer instead of a negative integer. This can cause an error value to be interpreted as the read size, which can cause a buffer overread for applications relying on the returned size.
