From eb3a13230b78c3dc580b509e370862c632c90dae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: H Hartley Sweeten Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2014 11:10:50 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] staging: comedi: comedi_buf: make comedi_buf_write_samples() add samples that fit This function currently fails if the number of samples to add would overflow the async buffer. Modify it to add the samples that fit so at least some of the sample data is returned to the user.
